For this exercise, we adopted a post-structuralist epistemic stance once we are not searching for universal truths, but for another way to understand subject representation and the document surrogates constructed by librarians. Deconstruction (OLSON, 1996) was the method used to descentralize the binary opposition neutrality versus special interests. Thus, we have on one hand the librarian's belief to avoid interference from his moral values while pursuing a supposed impartiality and, on the other hand, her/his need to make value judgments to better represent specific communities of users. Binaries were descentralized using the FRSAD and power relations as well as underlying assumptions and presumptions inherent to them were highlighted.29-53porDeconstructionBinary oppositionNeutrality in subject representationSpecial interests in subject representationFunctional Requirements for Subject Authority Data (FRSAD)Artigo10.1590/1981-5344/2732S1413-99362017000200029WOS:000409175800002Acesso abertoS1413-99362017000200029.pdf
