Edgar Morin and the Importance of Interdisciplinary Studies
Abstract
This research aims to highlight the importance of interdisciplinarity from the perspective of Edgar Morin, by exposing the risks associated with the separation of academic disciplines. Using a descriptive analytical approach, the study identifies the benefits gained from the specificity and accuracy of scientific disciplines, such as the ability to control studied phenomena and the increased predictive power of those phenomena. However, the isolation of disciplines can lead to oversimplification, fragmentation, and the neglect of complex realities. Interdisciplinarity is, therefore, crucial as it offers a more comprehensive understanding of complex subjects, recognizing their multidimensionality. The study also emphasizes the role of interdisciplinary approaches in promoting dialogue between sciences, fostering openness, and removing barriers, both in scientific research and education.
