Yes. For the probabilistic parts, Sausserre. For the "perpetually
renogotiable" parts, John Searle's concepts of Social Reality and
the difference between what he calls "brute facts" and
"institutional facts":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Searle#Social_reality
Meaning is not something that is "out there", ready to be bound into
our content. As content moves between producers and consumers - and
especially across institutional boundaries - the meanings that are
superimposed on the markup and the content change.
As time passes, the "semantic drift" can also be witnessed within a
single institution where the "markup of our forefathers" is
reinterpreted by a newer generation.
So it goes.
