Archives in Liquid Times aims to broaden and deepen the thinking about
archives in today's digital environment. It is a book that tries to fuel the
debate about archives in different fields of research. It shows that in these
liquid times, archives need and deserve to be considered from different
angles.
Archives in Liquid Times is a publication in which archival science is linked to
philosophy (of information) and data science. Not only do the contributors
try to open windows to new concepts and perspectives, but also to new uses
of existing concepts concerning archives. The articles in this book contain
philosophical reflections, speculative essays and presentations of new
models and concepts alongside well-known topics in archival theory.
Among the contributors are scholars from different fields of research, like
Anne Gilliland, Wolfgang Ernst, Geoffrey Yeo, Martijn van Otterlo, Charles
Jeurgens and Geert-Jan van Bussel. This book includes interviews with
Luciano Floridi and Eric Ketelaar, in which they reflect on key issues arising
from the contributions. The editors are Frans Smit, Arnoud Glaudemans
and Rienk Jonker.
