Abstract

Record continuum is a theory providing the basis for archival science in the paradigm shift to the electronic record environment. However, critical analysis of it has been hardly performed so far, as it is still in development, and its core is a new perspective on records different from the life cycle model. Therefore, for further understanding of the significance and limitations of record continuum in the electronic record environment and performance of more in-depth theoretical development, an analysis of the meaning and nature of records contained in record continuum logic is essential. Given that record continuum does not define a record separately, the meaning and nature of records it contains in the recent electronic record environment are examined through the analysis of axis and dimension in a record continuum model.

레코드 컨티뉴엄은 전자기록 환경으로 이행하는 패러다임 전환기에 기록학의 기반을 제공하는 이론임에도 불구하고, 이에 대한 비판적 분석을 그동안 거의 수행되지 않았다. 레코드 컨티뉴엄은 아직 개발이 진행 중인 이론으로, 핵심은 라이프사이클 모델과는 다른 기록에 대한 새로운 시각이다. 따라서 전자기록 환경에서 레코드 컨티뉴엄이 지닌 의미 및 한계를 분석하고 보다 심도 있는 이론적 개발을 위해서는 레코드 컨티뉴엄 논리 속에 함유된 기록의 의미 및 속성에 대한 분석이 필수적으로 요구된다. 하지만 레코드 컨티뉴엄에서는 기록에 대해 별도로 정의를 내리지 않고 있다. 이에 본고에서는 최근의 전자기록 환경에서 레코드 컨티뉴엄 이론 속에 함유된 기록의 의미 및 속성을 축선 및 차원 분석을 통해 고찰하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 우선 기록의 의미 및 속성 도출을 위한 기초 작업으로, 컨티뉴엄 모델상의 차원 1 및 차원 2에 초점을 맞추어 분석을 수행하였다. 이어 컨티뉴엄 논리 속에 함유된 기록의 의미 및 속성을 라이프사이클 모델과 결부시켜 고찰하였으며, 이를 기반으로 컨티뉴엄이 지닌 의의를 고찰한 다음, 기록의 의미 및 속성 관점에서 컨티뉴엄이 지닌 한계를 제시하였다.
