摘要

目的本研究旨在回顾和了解马拉维记录管理实践的现状,重点关注公共和私营部门组织。设计/方法论/方法解释学框架支撑了对研究现象的定性回顾。文献的纳入和排除标准由系统评价的首选报告项目和荟萃分析方法指导。15份文件符合资格标准,并告知了研究结果。文献包括期刊文章、硕士和博士学位论文以及会议论文。调查结果研究发现,记录的创建、获取和保存方式有印刷和电子两种。它还证实了不同类型的组织(公共、私营、学术界和民间社会)认识到需要适当的记录管理实践。然而,有效和高效率的档案管理受到许多障碍的困扰,包括缺乏资金,在机构和国家一级缺乏档案管理政策、标准和程序,档案分类制度不完善,以及缺乏最高管理人员的支持。最重要的是,该综述表明,马拉维的大多数研究集中在学术界,很少关注其他同样重要的领域,如农业、贸易、旅游、运输和能源。因此,这种情况要求对这些部门的记录管理实践进行更多的实证研究。原创性/价值据作者所知,这是第一次在国家层面上进行的综述,因此这些发现为决策者和研究从业者提供了关于马拉维迄今为止记录管理研究趋势的重要见解。

A hermeneutic review of records management practices in Malawi: a developing country context
Purpose This study aims to review and understand the state of records management practices in Malawi, focusing on both public and private sector organisations. Design/methodology/approach The hermeneutic framework underpinned a qualitative review of the study phenomenon. The inclusion and exclusion criterion for the literature was guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis methodology. Fifteen documents met the eligibility criteria and informed the study findings. The literature comprised of journal articles, dissertations at both master and doctoral levels, and conference papers. Findings The study found that records are created, captured and maintained both in print and electronic formats. It also confirmed that different types of organisations (public, private, academia and civil society) recognise the need for proper records management practices. However, effective and efficient records management is besieged by numerous obstacles, including lack of funding, absence of records management policy, standards and procedures at both institutional and national levels, poor records classification systems and a lack of top management support. Most importantly, the review shows that the majority of studies in Malawi have focused on academia, with little attention to other equally fundamental areas such as agriculture, trade, tourism, transport and energy. Thus, this situation calls for more empirical studies of records management practices in those sectors. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first kind of review to be done at a national level, so the findings provide significant insights for policymakers and research practitioners on records management research trends to date in Malawi.
