ISKO Italy in perspective. An analysis of the 2017, 2019, 2021 and 2023 meetings from the ontological, epistemological and sociological dimensions of the domains

This study examines four ISKO Italy meetings to determine which domain dimensions are most prominent in the presented works. The characterization of the domains is understood in terms of ontological, epistemological, and sociological dimensions, as outlined by Hjørland and Hartel (2003). Therefore, the goal of this article is to analyze the works presented in the ISKO Italy chapters through these dimensions. The guiding question is: how can the domains’ dimensions, as presented by Hjørland and Hartel (2003), be understood in the themes discussed in the ISKO Italy chapters? The research uses qualitative, bibliographic, and documentary methods. Along with content analysis procedures, this approach allows for categorizing the works according to the domain dimensions. The results show a growing focus on themes related to the reality of researchers involved in strengthening theoretical, methodological, and applied studies in Knowledge Organization.
