Документи истргнути из контекста – опасност од манипулисања науком // Documents torn out of context – the danger of manipulating science

Journal Title: Arhivski pogledi // Archival Views - Year 2020, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

The paper discusses the issue of digitization and presentation of digitized documents on the Internet, i.e. the danger posed by (historical) knowledge as professional, and especially unprofessional users of digitized archives, publishing certain documents or parts of funds and collections with “selected” documents. Also, numerous institutions that do not have the task of preserving archival records, apart from archives, are increasingly collecting archival records and making it available to users. Collection is done selectively, with certain pre-defined theses that want to prove that material. Archival science represents the population of the fund as a whole and the principles of provenance, which we believe should be applied to digitalization as well. Historical research based on archival records and the cooperation of archivists and historians in presenting historical truth is the best way to fight against pseudo-historians, and sensationalists who abuse documents and manipulate science.
