Abstract

Knowledge organization promotes advances in theoretical and applied study of concepts. This paper explores the question of semiotic backgrounds of knowledge organization, informational mediation and communication, focusing on the pragmatic-semiotic meaning of concepts. We conclude that organizing information and knowledge approaches that seek to emphasize the meaning of language used by a community must to recognize the semiotic characteristics of concepts.  Keywords: Concepts. Signs. Semiotics. Knowledge Organization. Information mediation.
