Insofar as disagreement may in principle regard most of (maybe all) facets of information system ontologies’ [ISOs] debate, it may also produce a plurality of views – sometimes inconsistent with each other – on ISOs’ development and design. This paper analyzes a view that makes the recognition of – and provides a theoretical foundation for – such a plurality of views a trademark: perspectivism (on ISOs). The aim is to show what exactly endorsing perspectivism consists of, and how perspectivism differs from different, competing views. Section 2 introduces the main claims of perspectivism, and remarks that perspectivism mainly deals with ISOs’ development and design. As for ISOs’ development, Sect. 3 considers domain’s partition and systematization, by distinguishing perspectivism from realism and relativism. Section 3 also shows that perspectivism implies some sort of variantism on ISOs’ representational primitives, about which perspectivism may not differ from its rivals. As for the ISOs’ design, Sect. 4 points out that despite perspectivism grants the possibility to use any procedural approach, principle, and ontological language, it is not committed to uphold that all those approaches, principles, and languages are legitimate. Finally, Sect. 5 focuses on both perspectivism’s weaknesses and (theoretical) contribution to ISOs’ debate.

信息系统本体论的视角

就信息系统本体 [ISO] 辩论的大多数(也许是全部)方面原则上可能存在分歧而言,它也可能产生关于 ISO 开发和设计的多种观点——有时彼此不一致。本文分析了一种观点,该观点使这种多元观点成为一种商标,并为其提供了理论基础:视角主义(在 ISO 上)。目的是展示支持视角主义到底包含什么,以及视角主义与不同的、相互竞争的观点有何不同。第二节介绍了视角主义的主要主张,并指出视角主义主要涉及ISO的开发和设计。至于ISO的发展,Sect。 3通过区分透视主义与现实主义和相对主义来考虑领域的划分和系统化。第 3 节还表明,视角主义意味着 ISO 表征基元的某种变体,在这一点上视角主义可能与其竞争对手没有什么不同。至于 ISO 的设计,Sect。 4 指出,尽管视角主义允许使用任何程序方法、原则和本体语言,但它并不致力于维护所有这些方法、原则和语言都是合法的。最后,教派。 5 重点关注视角主义的弱点以及对 ISO 辩论的(理论)贡献。
