Interdisciplinarity from the Perspective of Ezequiel Ander-Egg

Abstract

The educational system has been operating in accordance with the traditional paradigm, characterized by sectioning, skewing, atomizing the whole in the study units that comprise it; Hence the disciplinarity arises, which delimits the different areas of knowledge in such a way that they are organized in a systematic position to facilitate their understanding; However, Ander-Egg (1999), gave it a twist by exposing a vision of executing interdisciplinarity, stating that the interposed lines between each discipline are diffuse and that when they are overlapped they can provide solutions to complex problems in the educational environment, work As a team, broaden the vision of reality considering the different perspectives of each professional under the vision of complementarity. The purpose of this essay is to analyze interdisciplinarity in education from the author's point of view. The content analysis was carried out through texts by researchers such as Morin (2007); Balza (2001); Bertalanffy (1968); Prigogine and Stengers (1990), among others, about interdisciplinarity, complexity and a systemic approach. The most striking conclusion is that educational changes can be incorporated at the institutional level, incorporating interdisciplinarity in their actions.
