A mediação da informação nas discussões sobre os fluxos informacionais

Abstract

The discussions about information mediation and information flows need to take place from the complexity inherent in the contemporary social context, which requires a broad look at systems and environments. In view of this, it is questioned the interrelationships between mediation of information and information flows for the constitution of a complex thought? For this, the study aims to investigate the possibilities of contributions from the interrelations between mediation of information and information flows, aiming at the constitutive understanding of complex thinking. The methodology used was bibliographical, through a literature review, which brought, as results, the convergences and complexities of information mediation and information flows. As a conclusion, one can see the provocations that the mediation of information brings when overcoming a functionalist and sometimes deterministic view of the current model, and the concern with the appropriation of information by the subjects that occurs in the relationship with the world for the construction of knowledge, collaborating for the discussion of information flows.
