| Abstract | These excerpts of this presentation: a) highlight the importance to create LIS Masters and PhD programs with emphasis in the social transformation with a critical and pro-commons epistemology, and emphasis in the theoretical against the pragmatical and pro-commodification; b) reject the fallacious ideologies that say we live in a "knowledge and information society", and criticize them underpinned in the ideas of von Baeyer's (2003) Information: the New Language of Science; criticize their advocates that follow those ideologies from the dominant classes who evade and conceal the social inequalities, people without the basic social services: water, electricity, etc.; c) criticise the the advocates of the pragmatist and pro-commodification LIS education and propose to conduct deeper studies at a theoretical, epistemological, and methodological levels as a resistance and alternatives to the others, by using examples from other disciplines, such as physics, e.g. Nobel Laureate Richard Feynman (2001; The Pleasure of Finding Things Out) to study "for the pleasure of finding things out" or Stephen Hawking (1988; Brief History of Time), "to study only to know things" regardless "that intelligence wouldn't be a guarantee for our survival" (Hawking, 2001; The Universe in a Nutshell). |
