A theoretical and historical analysis of pertinence- and provenance-based concepts of classification of archives Giroux, Alain
Abstract
This thesis describes the main systems of classification used in public archives since the end of the eighteenth century. It provides an overview of the theory on which all archival classification is based. Grounded on the principles of this theory, pertinence-based and provenance-based classifications are described in the historical, juridical and intellectual context that framed their development and use. Each system of classification is examined to see how it structures archival material for both intellectual and physical control.
