Abstract

Disiplinlerarasılık giderek daha da popüler ve yaygın hale gelen kuramsal ve pedagojik bir yaklaşım ve akademik pratikler bütünüdür. Disiplinlerarasılık belirli kuramsal, pedagojik ve kurumsal faaliyetlerin genel adı olmakla birlikte, aslında disipliner ayrımlara radikal bir etki yapmış ve farklı disiplinlerin kendi epistemolojik ve yöntemsel sınırlarını yeniden tanımlamasına yol açmıştır. Aynı zamanda disiplinlerarasılık, kendi sembolik ve kurumsal sınırlarını yer yer katı hatlarla çizmiş akademik cemaatlerin yapısını da kökten bir biçimde etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmada, giderek daha da popüler ve etkili bir hale gelen disiplinlerarasılık kavramı disipliner ayrımların görece uzun tarihi bağlamında tartışılacak, kavramın farklı tanımları ve farklı bağlamlarda kavram üzerine sorunsallaştırmalar eleştirel bir analize tabi tutulacaktır

Revisiting The Issue of Inter Disiplinarity and Disiplinary Distinctions in Social Siences

Abstract

Interdisciplinarity depicts a theoretical and pedagogical approach and a set of academic practices that has been increasingly more popular and widespread. Being more than a general term describing theoretical, pedagogical and institutional activities, interdisciplinarity has radically altered the conception of disciplinary distinctions and caused various disciplines to redefine their symbolic and methodological boundaries. Moreover, academic communities are on the way of changing their symbolic and institutional territories, very solidly defined at times, upon influence of interdisciplinarity. This article focuses on the concept of interdisciplinarity with respect to the relatively long history of disciplinary distinctions and attempts to critically analyze the various definitions of and problematic points regarding the concept
