Abstract

Museology, like any other generalist academic discipline, has originated, developed and assumed forms which are in fact the most appropriate for its development. It is certainly not a basic academic discipline, but it has developed at an information level which is partly based on the results of research in other basic disciplines and partly follows the epistemology of the information sciences. It does not function on the level of applied sciences. It functions at a conceptual level which is different from that of the basic disciplines. Museology, like any discipline belonging to such a category, develops from practice and is confirmed in practice. It also anticipates practice, but it deals too with the theoretical study of those phenomena which will manifest themselves in practice. So museology is unseparable from practice.
