Theory and Method of Interdisciplinarity

 Interdisciplinarity has in recent years become a critical aspect of academic papers in the Humanities and Social Sciences, as well as the Natural Sciences. By providing methods and theories that cross disciplinary boundaries, interdisciplinarity builds bridges between academic silos, creating new knowledge, theoretical discourse and praxis in the process.(Tress, Tress and Fry 2006) In academic discourse, interdisciplinarity typically applies to the realms of knowledge, research, education/pedagogy, and theory. (Nissani, 1995) We are creating an edited volume that critically engages theories, methods and praxis of interdisciplinary scholarship through the lens of these four realms.
