Daftar Isi:
  • Political philosophy has been defined over the years as philosophical reflection on how best to organize our collective life, our political institutions and our social practices. A political philosophy of information seeks to study organization articulation through the role of information, once it allows the use of public reason works, and state systems achieve social justice. Although some of the information systems have already been appropriated by the market, there are other instances, such as libraries, which have not only been colonized by the market, but which reverse the mercantilist effect with which cultural goods are involved, giving them documentary value, and differentiate between economic value and informational value. Libraries and other documentary information systems are forms of circulation. But they are also systems of cultural re-signification, as they convert symbolic goods into legitimate goods through a process of more autonomous documentary value. The need for information is a basic and legitimate need, since it not only strengthens citizenship but also personal and collective identity. It also helps individuals to decide and act, giving them a better exercise of autonomy and self-determination, which contributes to the formation of self-understanding.
