Information systems: between naturalization and sancturization

Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2011, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

This article aims to conduct an analysis of the forms of social information systems. Beyond the description of the mechanisms of "naturalization" of procedures brought about by information systems, naturalization that is based as much on an internalization of norms as on outsourcing of constraints, it is the nature itself of the data and of the postures that has changed. Dehistoricization, sanctuarization will allow some procedures, anthropological in their essence, to elude the public debate.
