Abstract

: This article provides a comprehensive conceptual analysis of information. It begins with a folk notion that information is a tripartite phenomenon: information is something carried by signals about something for some use. This suggests that information has three main aspects: structural, referential, and normative. I analyze the individually necessary and jointly sufficient conditions for defining these aspects of information and consider formal theories relating to each aspect as well. The analysis reveals that structural, referential, and normative aspects of information are hierarchically nested and that the normative depends on the referential, which in turn depends on the structural.
结构信息、参考信息和规范信息
:本文对信息进行了全面的概念分析。它始于一种民间观念,即信息是一种三方现象:信息是由某种用途的信号携带的东西。这表明信息有三个主要方面:结构性、参考性和规范性。我分析了定义信息的这些方面的单独必要和共同充分的条件,并考虑了与每个方面相关的形式理论。分析表明,信息的结构、参照和规范方面是分层嵌套的,规范依赖于参照,而参照又依赖于结构。
