The aim is to analyze the origin and evolution of the Information and Communication Sciences, born in France in the second half of the 20th century under the impulse of a group of researchers in which Roland Barthes, Robert Escarpit and Jean Meyriat were the most representative. The integrated perspective they advocated for this field of study has achieved concrete results in France, but its influence in other countries is virtually unknown. Nevertheless, we know that, through the creation of the iSchools academic movement, the information and communication binomial has been modeled with a markedly technological and less scientific-social and humanistic bias. The analysis of the programmes offered by iSchools showed that, although some schools offer training in communication and information, there is no consistent epistemological basis to support the integrated vision that characterized the French SIC nor a real transdisciplinary vision. In this paper we intend to show that it is possible to develop a project that brings communication and information professionals closer together, and that allows us to overcome the professional dimension and discover affinities at the phenomenological and epistemological level.
