Interdisciplinarity, human development and human emancipation

This article aims to be a critical counterargument to the propositions that intend to overcome the fragmentation of knowledge through interdisciplinarity, transdisciplinarity, multidisciplinarity and other similar denominations. We seek to demonstrate that these propositions constitute an erroneous path to a badly-equated problem. Moreover, as the fragmentation of knowledge does not originate from the epistemological sphere, but from the ontological one, then its integral overcoming necessarily depends on the transformation of the real word from which it stems.

Fragmentation of knowledge; Interdisciplinarity; Ontological criticism
