【 摘 要 】

From a historical approach of the construction of the computer and computing, we argue in favor of a more vigorous interaction between Computer Science and Information Science. The arguments are established not only around the role of information as performer of both areas, but also from evidence of the impossibility of "exact" or "human" knowledge to solve by themselves the challenges of the construction of science and technology. In addition, we consider the hybridism between what is called "content" (what is studied) and the so-called "context" (where and when is studied), and the impossibility of a broad understanding of technological artifacts or scientific facts dissociated of the historical conditions in which they have been proposed. All these three questions make clear that, like the Science of Information, Computer Science is also constructed around the information, and therefore, the dialogue between these fields need to crave the level of co-construction of both fields.
