What is Disclosure?
Disclosure is understood as the act of making information publicly available to all. This word derives from the Latin divulgare, which means to “divulge.” As a synonym for disclosure, the words broadcast, publish or information may be used.
Disclosure refers to the action of exposing and disseminating content that may be of public interest, either on a general or specific topic. Currently, there are a large number of communication tools and channels through which any content may be disclosed.
Therefore, disclosure of information may be presented in any number of formats, including print media, video, or audio. The fundamental aim of disclosure is the dissemination of information and knowledge to everyone interested.
Disclosure is achieved when the owner of the information places it within the reach of others, or perhaps less ethically when the information is made available without consent. The so-called mainstream media are a prime example of an entity that engages in disclosure of information, both with and without express permission. At times, mainstream media determines that disclosure without express permission is in the better interest of the populace, and discloses information. In this example, arguments as to the ethics of such actions are arguable, and there have been many cogent and well-supported cases made from countless standpoints of opinion.
It should be noted that information being disclosed must be in a language understood by the intended group, it should ideally be based on reliable sources, it should be contextually appropriate, and for optimum disclosure, the information should reveal results and reactions, be couched within applicable events, clearly separate opinion from fact, provide analysis, introduce new content where appropriate, and among others, make pellucidly clear what those disclosing the information wish to be known.
For example, documentaries are oftentimes used to disclose information. On the subject of Global Warming, many documentaries have presented new research and consequential findings from both sound methodologies and from arguments simply based upon opinion. Opinion-only arguments often come to bear. This is especially the case when profit and monied interests argue that global warming is a fallacy and that its effects upon climate change are a hoax. Still, in most informational sources on the subject, regardless of the views taken by those disclosing the information the content is intended for the general public. Those disclosing knowledge wish for the information to be understood by as many people as possible, so the chosen medium employs straightforward language, refrains from dense theorization, and breaks down scientific terminology so that those outside the scientific community may understand clearly.
As stated earlier, in the Modern Era, there are various means and channels of dissemination of information. Innumerable amounts of information are disclosed through mainstream media outlets and the internet. In today’s digital world, the public can access countless sources and inquire about virtually any political, historic, economic, social, or cultural issue. Some argue that all or nearly all of what humans know and have known is accessible to anyone who wishes to learn. Whether this is factual or not depends upon opinion. However, what is factual is that no era prior to the current comes anywhere close to the present in terms of sheer knowledge disclosed to all, via the internet, printed sources, and other media. Moreover, no prior time has witnessed the widespread affordability of the world’s knowledge. Historically-speaking, disclosure of information and reaching intended groups or wide dissemination of disclosures depended heavily upon having large amounts of funds dedicated to such purposes. Before the Modern Age, books were largely affordable only to the wealthy, printing was expensive and labor-intensive, and literacy itself was not common.
Regardless of availability and affordability however, as stated above, the dissemination of content should ideally be factually-sound. In order to distinguish fact from fiction and unilateral bias versus as little bias as possible, the public must know how to distinguish between truthful and accurate information and information that is unsubstantiated or false. Critical thinking is a must.
Origins of Disclosure
Science and specialized knowledge were never in the popular domain in human history. As noted earlier, for centuries the common classes did not even know how to read. However, since the popularization of Humanism and Humanistic Thought in the Renaissance Era, a gradual process of change began. Subsequent eras saw a gradual increase in literacy, and great thinkers, artists, authors, and erudite theorists began taking an ever-increasing and public role within cultures and societies. For example, in 1610, Galileo Galilei published what today we might call a “magazine.” It was arguably the first publication of its kind in history and was entitled Sidereus nuncius. In this publication, Galileo disclosed his scientific discoveries and spoke of his thoughts and views regarding science.
Various publications of the time, such as Galileo’s, were written in the Vulgate, or Common Latin (the variant of Latin spoken by the educated classes) instead of classical Latin, so that more people could read and understand.
Scientific Disclosure
Scientific Disclosure itself is a conduit through which content of great scientific value and general interest is disclosed. This information may cover any area of scientific interest, engaging in disclosure purely for disclosure’s sake, or for any other purpose including peer review, theorization, or to forward questions of scientific interest to a larger group.
Scientific disclosure consists of publishing the various scientific theories, new advances, developments, and discoveries, for a specialized audience and sometimes, for the general public.
This disclosure also makes use of the various channels and information tools that are available. However, of the utmost importance is the disclosure of facts and the cogent demonstration of said facts using the Scientific Method of inquiry. Otherwise, what is disclosed falls short of verifiability, and trust suffers. In the past and present, unfortunately, in some cases, false information has been disseminated and labeled “scientifically-sound.” Ultimately when this happens, the fallacies, when discovered, cause mistrust.
Consequently, the meaning and prior and inherent credibility of the words “scientific fact” are all put at risk since what is disseminated is false or erroneous information. Untrustworthy sources, combined with cravings for fame and notoriety, have produced a significant number of documents, documentaries, and other media which are illegitimate. This is especially tragic given the ease with which it is possible to reach the masses in modern times. In socio-cultural, political, and socio-economic senses to name a few, we have seen and continue to see the destructive and far-reaching effects of such fraudulent endeavors. The destruction of trust and erudition and the devaluation of critical thinking have contributed to and walk hand-in-hand with the lucrative status now held by the disclosure of misinformation.
The Internet is, without a doubt, the most valuable and simultaneously destructive tool when it comes to disclosing any topic or work since it offers us different ways of reaching people and obtaining answers and opinions. Within the cyber universe, social networks are the easiest and most direct means of making our ideas public; they allow us to be constantly connected with a potentially considerable number of people from all over the world.
Importance of scientific disclosure
The articles of scientific dissemination are part of an educational apparatus that provides the general public with access to the most academic, technical, or specialized information, which allows us to form a “common sense” regarding the sciences and the rules of the universe that we have discovered. They contribute to reducing the educational gap between different sectors of the population.
The evolution of Disclosure
When the printing press or the Internet was not a project, the dissemination of knowledge and topics was done only through orality. This situation sometimes generated misunderstandings, because of course, there were possibilities that the information did not arrive correctly but with various misrepresentations.
In the 15th century, with the arrival of the printing press, the dissemination of knowledge and news could be made more extensive.
The difference between a report and an article
The main difference between a newspaper report and a disclosure article has to do with the validity or current nature of the subject matter.
In the case of the report, the news is essential, either because there was a great discovery in the area because it affects the community in some way recently or simply because it is “in vogue”.
The disclosure texts, on the other hand, do not always respond to the call of the news, but rather address complex and already accepted topics such as scientific knowledge, seeking to make them easier to understand.
