Files Under A New Perspective To Organize Awareness

Archival arrangement is the central content of the whole archival management activities, and also the foundation and the premise to improve the quality and efficiency of the other archival management works .Having a correct recognition to the theory and practice of the archival arrangement is the key to do other works better. However, the theory of the archival arrangement is not a set of immutable scientific laws. It advances as the social practice advance, which affects directly at the same time the developing of the archival arrangement practice, and so do the theory establishing and the technology developing to the other links of the archival management works. Therefore, archivists should not across varying realms of practice to defend stubbornly the original theory principle, and the recognition to the theory and practice of the archival arrangement must not remain in the past understanding, but should be a sustained developing process.The recognition about archival arrangement which is elaborated in this paper is a re-recognition to the archival arrangement theory and practice, on the basis of former traditional archival theory and the existing research on electronic archives arrangement, after the practice of electronic archives arranging appearing in archival practice. The logical starting point of the recognition is the theory of "dual constitutions in archival material entity" that proposed by modern archives science, the archival historical relation is the internal logic of the recognition, and the practical basis for the recognition is "the dual archival practice system" which is involved in the modern archival theories. After re-recognizing the archival arrangement under a new perspective, we have come to the conclusion: the essence and the core of the archival arrangement under the modern archival theories and practices system, is the arrangement to the archival historical relation, and all the innovation and revolution to the theory and techniques of archival arrangement should focus on the historical relation and also the arrangement to the historical relation. Following such conclusion, we also proposed the technology and principle for archival arrangement which aim at the arrangement of the archival historical relation in order to achieve the perfect unification and combination to the theory and practice of the archival arrangement.
