15. ~disciplinarity
(according to Nicolescu)
● Multi: “...concerns studying a research topic not in just
one discipline but in several at the same time.”
● Inter: “...has a different goal from multidisciplinarity. It
concerns the transfer of methods from one discipline
to another.”
● Trans: “concerns that which is at once between the
disciplines, across the different disciplines, and
beyond all disciplines.”
