Breaking down the invisible wall to enrich archival science and practice
This article reviews the state of archival science where basic concepts have been subject to a long stream of criticisms without satisfactory resolution of the issues identified. It establishes a ground for progress by articulating criteria for evaluating archival concepts and proposes a path forward by enriching archival science with concepts and methods from systemic functional linguistics and graph theory. Finally, it demonstrates how borrowing from these fields would satisfy the proposed criteria.
