Abstract

This paper explores the possibilities of constructing scientific objects that guide the creation of disciplines situated under the spectra of Information Science (IS). For such, a theoretical model considering illustratively the construction of the organization object is regarding the disciplinary constitution of Knowledge Organization is presented (KO). Considering bachelarian assumptions about the construction of scientific objects, herein is presented a historical retrospect of KO whose disciplinary delimitation is oriented not only by its object, but also by its social function. It is argued here that the example of the organization process — taken as an object— gives way for the reflection on the proposition of other disciplines that compound the theoretical framework of IS.
