Decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge in Brazilian Information Science: a study of the papers published in the ENANCIB proceedingsABSTRACT
Introduction: Information Science, particularly in the Brazilian context, has been historically grounded in Eurocentric epistemologies that contributed to the marginalization of knowledges produced outside the parameters of modern science. In response to these hierarchies, decolonial perspectives have emerged as a critical theoretical field that challenges informational practices and systems, expanding the recognition of traditional knowledge as legitimate epistemes. In this scenario, it becomes relevant to understand how these themes have been mobilized in the field’s scientific production.
Objective: This paper analyzes how decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge have been addressed in the scientific production presented at “Encontro Nacional de Pesquisa em Ciência da Informação” (ENANCIB). Methodology: This is basic research with a qualitative approach and an exploratory design, based on a literature review and thematic content analysis. The corpus comprised 27 papers retrieved from the ENANCIB Database. Document analysis was guided by five a posteriori category: ENANCIB Working Group, methodological approach, research context, conceptual framework, and relations with Information Science.
Results: The findings indicate a predominance of studies oriented by decolonial perspectives, especially from 2021 onward. Publications are concentrated in Working Groups that address the epistemological, political, and sociocultural dimensions of information. Qualitative approaches prevail, including theoretical-conceptual analyses and empirical research conducted in Indigenous, Afro-diasporic, and community-based contexts, revealing different levels of conceptual depth and articulation between the themes.
Conclusion: The results show that these topics have gained heterogeneous visibility at the conference, evidencing an emerging research agenda and highlighting the need for further studies that critically integrate decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge into informational practices.

1 INTRODUCTION
Historically, Information Science (IS) has consolidated itself based on scientific models associated with the institutionalization of knowledge, methodological formalization, and the centrality of writing as the main form of recording, validating, and sharing knowledge. Taking a critical view of this dynamic, Fernandes (1995) argues that this consolidation stems from the institutional management of knowledge, through which entities such as the State, Capital, and Science control and select the flow of social knowledge, deterministically and exclusively dictating what is legitimized as information. The asymmetrical nature of this process is recognized and problematized by Capurro (2003), who asserts that the institutionalization and formalization of knowledge are not neutral, as they are linked to global power structures and hegemonic interests, as they are articulated with global power structures and hegemonic interests, requiring critical reflection on whom information serves in a system marked by the logic of globalization.
In Brazil, the process of scientific consolidation has been influenced by the colonial legacy and the adoption of European epistemologies that have shaped the predominant academic structure in the country. As a consequence, knowledge produced outside the implemented scientific parameters has been marginalized, leading to the disregard of the knowledge of traditional communities by universalizing scientific rationality (Diegues, 2000). Similarly, Brandão and Fagundes (2016) emphasize that knowledge linked to popular culture has historically been treated as an object of intervention rather than as an epistemology capable of producing critical knowledge.
Challenging the hierarchical processes of knowledge and power, decolonial perspectives emerge, configuring a critical-theoretical field focused on challenging the foundations and theories prevalent in contemporary Information Science. These approaches problematize the production, organization, mediation, and circulation of information, as well as the information systems and policies that reproduce universalisms which, in turn, invisibilize the recognition of situated and collectively constructed epistemologies (Fonseca; Zaninelli, 2022; Talone Neto; Marteleto, 2024).
In this context, traditional knowledge comes to be understood as collectively produced knowledge, anchored in experience, social memory, orality, and intergenerational transmission. This knowledge does not constitute remnants of a pre-scientific stage of knowledge, but rather epistemologies that coexist with modern science, operating according to their own logics and responding to the demands of the communities that produce them (Arruda; Caldas, 2021; Vilhena; Dias, 2021).
Given the expansion of these discussions in the field of Information Science, decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge have become recurring themes in research, associated with diverse sub-areas and empirical objects. In this context, the present investigation emerges from the convergence of the research agendas of the authors who, although situated in distinct areas of activity within the field, share an interest in understanding how these debates have been constructed and mobilized in Brazilian Information Science.
Considering the above, this study understands that the National Meeting of Research and Graduate Studies in Information Science (ENANCIB) is a strategic context for the initial survey of the concepts and applications of the presented themes, as it is a space for sharing and reflecting on the current scientific output in the field. Therefore, this research seeks to answer the following question: How have decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge been addressed in the scientific output of ENANCIB, and to what extent are these theoretical axes articulated in the research presented at the conference?
By surveying papers in the ENANCIB Database (BENANCIB), this study aims to analyze how decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge have been addressed in ENANCIB discussions, identifying convergences, tensions, and contributions of these themes to the field of Brazilian Information Science.
To this end, following this introduction, the text is structured as follows: a section dedicated to building the theoretical framework, which discusses the foundations and contributions of decolonial perspectives to Information Science, as well as traditional knowledges as a source of knowledge, considering their forms of production, transmission, and recognition within the information field; a section presenting the research methodology, characterizing the study, data collection procedures, the constitution of the corpus, and the adopted analytical categories; a section gathering the results, articulating the empirical findings with the mobilized theoretical framework; and finally, a concluding section offering a synthesis of the main findings, the study's limitations, and avenues for future research.
In this scenario, the findings are expected to contribute to a critical reflection on the relationships between knowledge construction and sharing, policies and practices of information organization, use, and mediation, valuing the diversity of knowledge within the Brazilian context.
2 LITERATURE REVIEW
This section presents the theoretical foundations supporting this study, articulating the two central axes of the research: decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge. It begins by discussing decoloniality as a critical approach aimed at problematizing epistemic and social hierarchies, the coloniality of knowledge, and the processes of knowledge legitimation. It then addresses traditional knowledge through their modes of production, transmission, and recognition, considering their relationship with social practices, memory, oral history, territory, and culture. Together, these discussions clarify how such perspectives challenge informational concepts and practices related to knowledge organization, information mediation, and the recognition of historically subalternized epistemologies.
2.1 Decolonial Perspectives in Information Science
The decolonial perspective emerged at the end of the 20th century as a critical-theoretical framework that questions the persistence of colonial structures of domination even after the formal end of colonialism. Developed primarily by Latin American intellectuals linked to the Modernity/Coloniality Group, this approach proposes a critique of the epistemological foundations of Western modernity, highlighting that the asymmetries produced by colonial expansion continue to operate in the organization of scientific knowledge and the legitimation of knowledge (Quijano, 2005; Mignolo, 2008; Walsh, 2009). In this sense, Crippa (2021, p. 19) understands that "the decolonial approach [...] represents a movement of theoretical, practical, political, and epistemological resistance to the logic of modernity/coloniality."
In the field of decolonial studies, modernity is understood as inseparable from coloniality, since the European modern project was constituted simultaneously with colonial exploitation. According to Quijano (2005) and Mignolo (2017), the ideals of progress, rationality, and universality have historically been accompanied by processes of political, economic, and epistemic domination, in which certain forms of knowledge were affirmed as universal while others were systematically subjugated.
In this context, Quijano (2005) formulates the concept of coloniality of power, understood as a global matrix of domination that articulates race, labor, gender, and authority. According to the author, the racial classification of the world's population has become a structuring axis of social and economic relations, legitimizing hierarchies that persist to contemporaneity. This matrix is not limited to political and economic dimensions, but also permeates knowledge production and validation, shaping what is denominated the coloniality of knowledge.
The coloniality of knowledge refers to the imposition of Eurocentric knowledge as the universal standard of scientificity, establishing epistemic hierarchies that recognize certain forms of knowledge as legitimate, rational, and scientific, while others are disqualified, silenced, or reduced to the status of an object of study. This process sustains the idea that only modern Western science is capable of producing valid knowledge, marginalizing situated, local, and non-hegemonic epistemologies (Lander, 2005; Mignolo, 2017).
Silenced or deemed "non-rational" knowledge is not limited to that produced outside the West, but also includes knowledge produced by racialized and historically marginalized subjects. Knowledge produced by people of African origin, Indigenous peoples, and marginalized populations has, throughout history, been invalidated or appropriated without recognition, while their narratives and experiences have often been recorded from the perspective of white, Europeanized men, reinforcing epistemic and symbolic asymmetries.
Decolonial critique of modern science, however, does not imply its denial, but rather the problematization of its foundations and its exclusionary effects. By presenting itself as neutral, objective, and universal, modern science contributes to the naturalization of epistemic hierarchies and to the erasure of power relations permeating its historical constitution. In this sense, Grosfoguel (2009 apudBernardino-Costa; Grosfoguel, 2016) draws attention to the distinction between social place and epistemic place, emphasizing that being socially situated on the oppressed side of power relations does not automatically mean thinking from a subaltern epistemic place. For the author, thinking from a subaltern perspective requires an ethical-political commitment to the production of counter-hegemonic knowledge.
Thus, decoloniality is not merely a theoretical framework or an abstract critique of colonial structures, but rather “a set of positions, stances, horizons, and projects or actions of resistance that allows for transgression, intervention, and even insurgency” (Achilles; Gonçalves; Peixoto 2022, p. 2). It is, therefore, a perspective that articulates critical reflection and political engagement, oriented towards transforming the historical conditions that sustain the coloniality of power and knowledge.
Garcez and Sales (2023) also understand decoloniality as a field of reflection that opposes hegemonic forms of knowledge production, consisting of critical approaches aimed at respectfully confronting the historical process of colonization of knowledge. For the authors, it is about questioning and challenging the power structures and systems sustaining colonization and oppression in their various expressions.
The systematic exclusion of non-hegemonic knowledge is understood, within the scope of decolonial studies, as epistemicide, a concept that highlights the active and structural character of denying ways of knowing produced by subjugated peoples. This process involves intellectual delegitimization, denial of access to educational and scientific systems, and the symbolic inferiorization of subjects and knowledge. As Carneiro (2005, p. 97) points out, epistemicide refers to the “annulment and disqualification of the knowledge of subjugated peoples,” producing a cultural indigence sustained by institutional and symbolic mechanisms of exclusion.
This set of reflections constitutes what is denominated as the decolonial turn, understood as an epistemological shift that seeks to denaturalize the Eurocentric bases of knowledge and question the supposed universality of modern science. This turn proposes an openness to other rationalities, historical experiences, and cognitive practices, without reducing them to subordinate or folklorized categories, traversing different areas of knowledge and provoking the reconfiguration of research agendas and academic practices (Walsh; Mignolo, 2018).
Within this critical framework, Walsh (2009) and Santos (2009) emphasize the need to broaden the epistemological frameworks of modern science, recognizing the coexistence of multiple forms of knowledge production. For these authors, overcoming epistemic hierarchies requires valuing historically marginalized knowledge and constructing academic practices committed to epistemic justice.
This perspective engages with the challenges facing Information Science in the Brazilian context, where the decolonial perspective has been mobilized as an epistemological critique of hegemonic narratives, universalizing models of knowledge organization, and the supposed neutrality of information processes. By highlighting the relationships among science, power, and knowledge, this approach offers theoretical support for critically analyzing the scientific output in the field, its thematic, conceptual, and methodological choices, as well as the silences and absences permeating its constitution.
Therefore, Moura, Trivellato and Gomes (2024) articulate the notion of epistemic justice as a principle aimed at valuing different forms of knowledge production, recognizing diversity of perspectives and experiences within knowledge construction. Thus, decoloniality provides insights on to what extent Brazilian Information Science has incorporated, challenged, or marginalized non-hegemonic epistemologies, especially concerning dialogue with traditional and popular knowledge.
2.2 Traditional knowledge as a source of knowledge
Traditional knowledge can be understood as knowledge produced collectively, over time, by specific social groups, anchored in experience, observation of the environment, daily practice, and continuous interaction across subjects, culture, and territory. This knowledge originates from its own historical and social processes and develops in parallel with modern science, remaining deeply linked to the ways of life, cultural values, and concrete needs of the communities that produce it (Arruda; Caldas, 2021; Vilhena; Dias, 2021).
Unlike scientific knowledge, this knowledge is not legitimized by institutionalized academic or methodological criteria, but by social use, practical effectiveness, and collective recognition. Orality, social memory, learning through coexistence, and intergenerational transmission are central elements in their modes of production and circulation, giving them a situated, dynamic, and processual character, in which knowledge is constructed and transformed within cultural practices and community relations (Batista; Farias, 2022; Blanco; Souza, 2023).
The diversity of sociocultural contexts in which this knowledge emerges contributes to the multiple terms used to designate it. Silva and Ferreira (2023) and Pereira and Souza (2022) indicate that expressions such as 'popular knowledge', 'ancestral knowledge', 'community knowledge', 'indigenous knowledge', and 'collective knowledge' are used to name distinct epistemological phenomena with common characteristics. This conceptual plurality should not be characterized as a theoretical fragility, but rather as an expression of the heterogeneity inherent in the modes of knowledge production, alongside the inadequacy of reducing them to a single, universalizing definition (Okawati; Muriel-Torrado, 2024).
Furthermore, Arruda and Caldas (2022) highlight that traditional knowledge cannot be understood as remnants of a pre-scientific stage of knowledge. On the contrary, they constitute epistemologies that historically coexist with modern science, operating according to their own logics and establishing relationships that can vary between dialogue, complementarity, and tension (Fonseca; Zaninelli, 2022).
Tensions between traditional knowledge and science intensified with the consolidation of specific validation criteria for scientific knowledge, based on literacy, methodological formalization, and academic institutionalization. According to Pereira and Souza (2022), this process began to govern the recognition of knowledge as legitimate, thereby hierarchizing forms of knowing, assigning centrality to science and marginalizing knowledge produced outside its parameters (Arruda; Caldas, 2021).
According to Fonseca and Zaninelli (2022), the erasure of this knowledge manifests not only through explicit denial, but also through more subtle processes of capture, framing, and neutralization. When recognized, traditional knowledge tends to be converted into an object of study, documentation, or heritage branding, thereby being displaced from its original contexts of production and reinterpreted through categories external to the communities that generate it. This movement contributes to folklorization and the stripping of its political and social dimensions (Blanco; Souza, 2023).
In the field of Information Science, the incorporation of traditional knowledge into research has led to the expansion and problematization of classic concepts related to information, documents, memory, and knowledge organization. According to Zammataro, Barité, and Albuquerque (2024), recognizing this knowledge implies admitting information forms that go beyond written records, including cultural practices, narratives, artifacts, and oral expressions as legitimate manifestations of information. In this context, the concept of document is broadened to encompass cultural and material manifestations endowed with socially constructed meanings, understood as cultural documents or living documents, whose significance depends on the historical and social contexts they are embedded (Ribeiro; Silva, 2024; Santos; Mucheroni, 2021), placing information mediation as a central activity in the processes of knowledge construction and communication.
Finally, information action in relation to traditional knowledge involves ethical issues related to collective authorship, consent, and the participation of the involved communities. The absence of these considerations can reinforce practices of appropriation and external control of knowledge, even when associated with initiatives for cultural preservation and dissemination (Costa; Modolo; Miguel, 2024; Barbalho et al., 2023; 2024). Thus, Information Science occupies a strategic position in this relationship, both to reproduce processes of invisibility and to contribute to the recognition of diverse epistemologies, by problematizing the neutrality of information systems and the universal paradigms of knowledge organization.
3 METHODOLOGY
This basic research employs a qualitative approach, supported by descriptive quantitative procedures, and is exploratory and analytical in nature. It is based on a literature review and thematic content analysis (Bardin, 2011), articulated with the identification of frequencies and the categorical distribution of the data. The methodological approach consisted of identifying and analyzing the ENANCIB papers, considering the conference the primary benchmark for the production and validation of scientific knowledge in Brazilian Information Science.
As highlighted by Baracho et al. (2014), ENANCIB constitutes a privileged channel for socializing academic output in the area, bringing together Working Groups (WG) that reflect both consolidated research agendas and emerging themes. This allows monitoring the historical development of the field, identifying trends, conceptual disputes, and epistemological shifts.
The research corpus consisted of articles retrieved from BENANCIB in November 2025 through a systematic search using the descriptors 'traditional knowledge', 'popular knowledge', 'traditional knowledge', 'decolonial', and 'decoloniality'. The terms were searched individually in five distinct searches without association using Boolean operators, aiming at identifying the results retrieved by each descriptor. Considering the search characteristics of the database, no filters were applied by Working Group, document type, or time frame.
A total of 40 documents, published between 1997 and 2024 (the year corresponding to the last edition of ENANCIB incorporated into the database at the time of the search), were retrieved. After excluding duplicates and systematically reading the titles, abstracts, and keywords, a set of 27 texts remained. The inclusion criteria focused on selecting complete papers or oral presentations that had at least one of the related themes as a central element of the discussion. This centrality was identified by the presence of the term in the title, the alignment of the research objectives with the investigated themes, or the focus of the theoretical approach or the population analyzed on the concepts of decoloniality and traditional knowledge.
The selected papers were divided into two central axes, defined based on the search terms and the predominant focus of the production: 1) knowledge and 2) decoloniality. This organization was operational in nature and should not be understood as a rigid classification, since several texts combine more than one axis.
The texts were analyzed following the principles of thematic content analysis (Bardin, 2011), prioritizing the identification of conceptual recurrences, approaches to the themes, epistemological tensions, and information implications present in the analyzed productions. The categories of analysis were defined a posteriori, emerging from the content of the documents after a completion of full reading of the papers, and were organized into: 1) Working Group of the publication in ENANCIB; 2) methodological focus of the research; 3) context of application of the analyzed concepts/themes; 4) conceptual approach; 5) articulations of the research with Information Science.
The definition of the categories sought to establish correspondence among the research objectives, the theoretical framework, and the recurring elements identified in the corpus. Although defined a posteriori, the analytical categories reflect dimensions discussed in the theoretical framework and allowed for an examination of the integration of decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge within the ENANCIB Working Groups, as well as the adopted methodological approaches, the contexts of application, the levels of conceptual elaboration, and the ways these themes articulate with Information Science.
For systematization purposes, an analysis matrix was developed to record the presence, absence, or partial approach of each category, allowing for the identification of patterns, convergences, and divergences among the documents within the corpus. It is noteworthy that the categories were used as interpretative parameter for understanding the approaches within the texts, and that an effort was made to preserve the conceptual and contextual specificities of each paper, avoiding generalizations and respecting the epistemological diversity characteristic of the field.
4 RESULTS
The results of this research were organized based on the five analytical categories defined in the methodological procedures, guiding the presentation of the data according to the conceptual patterns and recurrences observed in the analyzed corpus (Bardin, 2011). In order to clarify the systematization of the results analysis, Chart 1 presents a quantitative summary of the data, distributed according to the analytical categories adopted. The integrated organization of the findings allows for the visualization of the incidence of thematic axes, the distribution by Working Groups, the methodological approaches, the application contexts, the conceptual approaches, and the ways the research is articulated with Information Science.
Particularly in the categories relating to the conceptual approach and articulations with Information Science, the subcategories are not mutually exclusive; a single paper may simultaneously encompass different modalities. This overlap highlights the complexity of the ways in which traditional knowledge and decolonial perspectives are mobilized within the examined scientific output, indicating that the studies move between descriptive uses and analytical-operational frameworks.
Regarding the distribution of papers according to the central themes, there is a predominance of studies guided by decolonial perspectives compared to those that directly address traditional knowledge. Of the 27 texts analyzed, 19 fall under the decoloniality theme, while 8 have traditional knowledge as their main focus of investigation. Research focused on traditional knowledge has been present at ENANCIB since the 1990s, while the explicit mobilization of decoloniality as a theoretical framework intensifies from 2021 onwards.
The discussion of these themes in the context of ENANCIB is not an isolated phenomenon, but part of a broader movement of critical inflection in Brazilian Information Science. The predominance of papers oriented towards decoloniality suggests that this framework has consolidated itself as a structuring axis of reflection in the field, especially regarding the problematization of the regimes of production and representation of information. This movement accompanies the growth of scientific output related to decoloniality in the area, intensified from 2020 onwards and with a significant increase in 2021, as pointed out by Ribeiro and Conceição (2023). It is observed, therefore, that the research shared at ENANCIB is part of a comprehensive scenario of theoretical expansion, indicating the incorporation of approaches that challenge universalizing models and historically established epistemic hierarchies.
From the perspective of the event's thematic organization, the distribution of publications among the Working Groups (WGs) indicates a higher incidence in three groups. Among the 12 WGs of ENANCIB, WG-2 - Organization and Representation of Knowledge and WG-12 - Information, Ethnic-Racial Studies, Gender and Diversities stand out, with seven papers each, followed by WG-3 - Mediation, Circulation and Appropriation of Information, with four papers. These three groups concentrate more than half of the analyzed corpus.
This distribution highlights the WGs in which debates on decoloniality and traditional knowledge find the greatest resonance within Information Science. The incidence in WG-2 aligns with the problematization of knowledge organization and representation processes, particularly when considering debates on the coloniality of knowledge, epistemic hierarchies, and the regimes of visibility and invisibility surrounding subjects, practices, and knowledges (Quijano, 2005; Lander, 2005; Mignolo, 2017; Zammataro; Barité; Albuquerque, 2024). In this sense, the presence of these papers in this group demonstrates that the critique of universalizing models of knowledge validation and representation converges with the decolonial discussions developed in the field.
In WG-12, the concentration of papers reinforces the relationship of these themes with discussions on diversity, ethno-racial relations, gender, and the recognition of historically subalternized epistemologies. The significant presence in this group highlights that debates on decoloniality and traditional knowledge have been mobilized in conjunction with issues of epistemic justice, epistemicide, and the contestation of hegemonic forms of knowledge production and legitimation (Garcez; Sales, 2023; Carneiro, 2005; Moura; Trivellato; Gomes, 2024). Meanwhile, in WG-3, the incidence of these studies points to the relevance of information mediation, circulation, and appropriation processes, especially when traditional knowledges are considered as collectively produced knowledge transmitted through social practices, orality, memory, and community relations (Arruda; Caldas, 2021; Batista; Farias, 2022; Blanco; Souza, 2023).
Thus, the distribution across WGs reveals that debates regarding decoloniality and traditional knowledge articulate with core thematic clusters of Information Science, particularly those focused on knowledge organization, information mediation, diversity, and the critique of epistemic hierarchies.
The findings indicate that this thematic consolidation is also reflected in the methodological choices structuring the research shared at the conference. There is a predominance of basic research and qualitative approaches, with a high incidence of theoretical-conceptual studies and critical literature reviews, particularly among papers guided by decolonial perspectives. Among the studies that address traditional knowledge, there is a presence of empirical or applied research, employing methodologies such as case studies, document analysis, participant observation, and analysis of cultural and information content, articulated with contexts such as communities, museums, libraries, digital platforms, and communication initiatives. In smaller numbers, metric and bibliometric research is identified.
The predominance of qualitative and analytical-interpretative strategies is not merely a descriptive fact, but an indication of the stage of maturation of the debate within the field. Although metric and bibliometric studies do not represent the majority approach, they contribute to the identification of trends, visibility patterns, and thematic gaps in the scientific communication of Information Science, functioning as instruments for self-reflection within the field.
As for the emphasis on analytical-interpretative strategies directly impacts the application contexts favored by the research. More than simple empirical scenarios, these loci are configured as spaces in which the previously discussed epistemological disputes materialize. These contexts are predominantly articulated with the WGs that assume the epistemological and sociopolitical dimension of information, being linked to research that questions the neutrality of information processes, challenges hegemonic regimes of knowledge production and representation, and seeks to recognize historically marginalized practices, narratives, and epistemes within the field of Information Science.
Regarding the contexts of application, the discussions unfold in diverse empirical and conceptual scenarios, reflecting the breadth and transversality of the themes in the field of Information Science. The analysis of the corpus shows that the studies focus mainly on three loci: 1) indigenous peoples, traditional communities, and territorially situated knowledge; 2) processes of organization, representation, and mediation of information; 3) memory, cultural heritage, and communicational practices.
In the set of analyzed papers, the most recurrent context refers to originating peoples, traditional communities, and territorialized knowledge, highlighting an approach by Information Science to historically subalternized social realities. In these studies, traditional knowledge is understood as a form of knowledge produced collectively, associated with experience, orality, social memory, and a continuous relationship with the territory, not being treated as residual or folkloric objects, but as epistemes in operation. Research such as that by Fonseca and Zaninelli (2022) and Barbalho et al. (2023) demonstrates that this knowledge constitutes the basis of its own productive, sociocultural, and information systems, demanding approaches that consider their internal logics of production, circulation, and validation of knowledge.
Based on these empirical contexts, the role of Information Science is challenged to rethink models of information management, organization, and mediation traditionally guided by universalizing parameters. Papers such as that by Torino et al. (2024) broaden the debate by articulating traditional indigenous knowledge with data governance and sovereignty in digital environments, introducing ethical and political concerns related to information self-determination and the coloniality of knowledge. Convergingly, Nascimento and Valério (2024) highlight the plurality of traditional knowledge by addressing Afro-diasporic epistemologies, valuing orality, corporeality, and ancestry as legitimate forms of knowledge production and transmission.
The inclusion of traditional knowledge in the scientific output of Information Science, therefore, is not limited to documentation or cultural preservation, but involves epistemological and political disputes over information, requiring the construction of information practices sensitive to the historical, cultural, and territorial specificities of the groups involved. This inflection leads to the second locus of investigation, centered on problematizing the infrastructures, instruments, and information practices as strategic spaces for operationalizing decolonial perspectives and recognizing epistemological plurality.
In the context of knowledge organization and representation, decoloniality is mobilized as a critical lens to question the supposed technical neutrality of classification systems, documentary languages, and descriptive instruments. Garcez and Sales (2021; 2023) and D'Almeida, Silva, and Campos (2023) demonstrate that these devices incorporate naturalized epistemic hierarchies, resulting in the underrepresentation of indigenous peoples and the invisibility of epistemologies from the Global South. Romeiro and Silveira (2023), in examining thesauri focused on gender studies, reinforce this understanding by demonstrating that classification decisions imply epistemological and political decisions within the field of Information Science.
In the field of information mediation, decolonial perspectives have been mobilized to rethink institutional and community practices, especially in libraries and cultural spaces. Souza, Blanco, and Sanches Neto (2024) argue that mediation guided by a decolonial perspective implies aligning the processes of selection, organization, and development of collections with the cultural and identity demands of the communities served, repositioning the library as a space of epistemic justice and information emancipation. Although many of these initiatives focus on critical-theoretical analyses and localized experiences, they indicate relevant shifts in the incorporation of these frameworks into the core processes of the field.
The third locus gathers discussions related to memory, cultural heritage, and communicational practices, highlighting shifts in how Information Science understands and engages with memory records. Achilles, Gonçalves, and Peixoto (2022) discuss the memory of Brazilian public libraries as a field permeated by symbolic disputes, while Ferreira and Silva (2024) demonstrate how lived experiences and situated knowledge challenge hegemonic models of scientificity. In the scope of cultural heritage, Silva and Ferreira (2023) highlight performance as an information practice, and Argenta and Scheiner (2018) highlight museum experiences that contribute to the recovery and valorization of historically disregarded knowledge.
In communication practices and digital environments, Barbalho et al. (2024) highlight Indigenous communication as a practice of resistance and self-representation, while Silva et al. (2022) analyze poetic productions in social media as information practices that articulate memory, language, and resistance to epistemicide. Together, these studies broaden the understanding of memory, heritage, and communication by recognizing the plurality of languages, media, and information practices as fields of epistemological and political dispute.
While a thematic and empirical expansion of the debate is observed across the different analyzed loci, it becomes equally relevant to examine the conceptual depth with which these frameworks are mobilized. Thus, the differences in the levels of conceptual incorporation in the analyzed papers are not restricted to formal variations in terminological use but indicate distinct modes of insertion of traditional knowledge and decoloniality.
In some studies, terms associated with traditional knowledge are employed in a predominantly descriptive or nominal manner, functioning as categories to identify cultural practices, ways of life, or situated knowledge, without systematic theoretical deepening or problematization of the epistemic hierarchies of modern science. Research such as that of Argenta and Scheiner (2018) and Silva and Ferreira (2023) exemplifies this movement by emphasizing museum experiences and cultural practices without explicitly resorting to references aimed at critiquing the dynamics of knowledge invisibility.
Another set of research presents an analytical-operational incorporation of literature, in which traditional knowledge is defined more consistently and articulated with concepts and processes of Information Science, such as knowledge management, memory, mediation, and information circulation. In these cases, even if the adoption of a decolonial perspective is not always identified, the papers recognize this knowledge as legitimate forms of knowledge production and discuss its information implications in specific social, cultural, and economic contexts.
Fonseca and Zaninelli (2022) and Barbalho et al. (2023), by discussing indigenous and community-based traditional knowledge in dialogue with knowledge management, highlight both the potential and the risks associated with the recording, circulation, and sharing of this knowledge, especially with regard to the preservation of its own logics and the possibility of undue appropriation.
In papers decoloniality is mobilized as a structuring reference, the shift becomes more evident. Garcez and Sales (2021; 2023), Achilles, Gonçalves and Peixoto (2022), Moura, Trivellato and Gomes (2024), and D'Almeida, Silva and Campos (2023) exemplify this approach by problematizing the epistemological foundations of Information Science and its instruments for organizing, representing, and mediating information, proposing conceptual and methodological revisions aligned with epistemic justice. In these cases, the critique is not limited to thematic expansion but reaches the very ontological and epistemological assumptions that guide the field.
Although fewer in number, studies that integrate traditional knowledge and decolonial perspectives point to a horizon of greater theoretical depth. Barbalho et al. (2024), Nascimento and Valério (2024), and Torino et al. (2024) demonstrate this articulation by treating communicational practices, data governance, and Afrocentric epistemologies as fields traversed by epistemological and information disputes, in which knowledge is understood as epistemes in operation and not merely as objects of study.
Finally, different levels of explicitness regarding the relationships established with Information Science are observed in the analyzed papers. In some of the research guided by decolonial perspectives, the area appears as a central object of theoretical and epistemological problematization, mobilized to discuss notions such as neutrality, objectivity, and universality, as well as instruments and practices of the organization, representation, and mediation of information. In other studies, especially those focused on traditional knowledge, the connection with Information Science occurs less explicitly. In these cases, the objects analyzed include museums, libraries, cultural heritage, communication practices, and knowledge management, but direct reflections on the theoretical foundations of the area or the epistemological shifts implied in the analyses are not always developed.
Thus, it is observed that Information Science appears in the papers both as a field of empirical application and as a space for epistemological critique, varying according to the adopted approach. The different forms of articulation identified in the corpus show distinct levels of theoretical and practical approximation across the analyzed themes and the scientific field, revealing both the consolidation of critical agendas and the persistence of applied and descriptive approaches within the examined production.
This conceptual heterogeneity reveals a field in the process of consolidation, in which descriptive uses, analytical-operational articulations, and structuring epistemological mobilizations coexist. Such diversity simultaneously highlights the openness and pluralization of the debate and the challenges of integrating critical perspectives into a field historically marked by technical-scientific and universalizing paradigms. In this context, it is deemed necessary to deepen the articulation between epistemological critique and information practices, preventing decoloniality from being restricted to a theoretical framework detached from structural transformations in the modes of production and organization of knowledge in Information Science, while at the same time expanding the possibilities for dialogue and future consolidation.
Decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge have been mobilized in the scientific output of Information Science from different approaches, contexts, and levels of conceptual elaboration. The analytical categories allowed us to identify convergences and specificities in the ways of approaching the themes, revealing a field in the process of conceptual and methodological expansion. This set of findings supports the reflection on the paths taken by Brazilian Information Science within the scope of ENANCIB, evidencing not only a space for debate under construction, but an ongoing process of epistemological reconfiguration.
5 CONCLUSION
From the perspective that ENANCIB serves as a privileged arena for generating and sharing scientific knowledge within Information Science, the conference constitutes a relevant observatory of signals and trends. These indicators reflect how both traditional and contemporary theoretical frameworks have been incorporated, (re)elaborated, and problematized within Brazilian Information Science. Based on this understanding, this study sought to analyze how decolonial perspectives and traditional knowledge have been mobilized in the scientific output presented in this context.
Considering conceptual, methodological, and information articulations, the analysis of the corpus revealed that the thematic discussions have been gaining visibility in the field, albeit in a heterogeneous manner, and assuming different levels of depth and relationship with the fundamentals of Information Science. It was also observed that the presence of traditional knowledge in the analyzed research does not necessarily imply the adoption of a decolonial perspective, as several papers address this knowledge from empirical perspectives linked to specific cultural, territorial, or institutional contexts, with an emphasis on valuing their practices.
Conversely, a significant body of research, guided by decolonial perspectives, highlights the valorization of historically subjugated epistemologies and the critique of the coloniality of knowledge, but fails to directly engage in the empirical analysis of traditional or popular knowledge.
The findings also indicate the relevance of expanding research agendas considering the ethical, political, and epistemological impacts of information activity within these contexts, especially regarding collective authorship, the legitimacy of knowledge, information sovereignty, and regimes of visibility in information science systems. Such agendas reinforce the strategic role of the area as a field capable of critically engaging with modern science, contributing to broadening its epistemological horizons and information practices from plural perspectives.
As a limitation, the study was restricted to the corpus retrieved from the BENANCIB database, limiting the scope of the results and perspectives of researchers who do not actively participate in the ENANCIB conference. Therefore, the evidence presented here does not intend to exhaust the discussions on these topics in Brazilian Information Science, but rather to offer an analytical overview from the perspective of the conference.
In this sense, this study is expected to encourage further research that explicitly addresses the themes discussed, articulating epistemological critique of information practices and knowledge organization systems. This will strengthen the understanding of Information Science as a constantly evolving field, capable of articulating different research agendas and critically addressing the challenges of contemporary science and society.
