Advancing transdisciplinarity: Learning, teaching, and institutionalizing
In defining values and skills for grappling with complex societal challenges, this article builds on Daniel Stokols’ generic model of the 4 Ts of training for transdisciplinary, team-oriented, translational, and transcultural research. Whether explicit or implicit, the 4 Ts thread throughout this exploration of learning and teaching in transdisciplinary contexts. Stokols’ focus was educating social ecologists, but his call to close the gap betwee…
Expert and non-expert at the same time: Knowledge integration processes and dynamics in interdisciplinary teamwork
Contemporary sustainability issues require the integration of diverse knowledge to study and address them holistically. How interdisciplinary knowledge integration arises in teamwork is, however, poorly understood. For instance, studies often focus on either individual or team processes, rather than studying their interplay and thereby contributing to understanding knowledge integration in an integral manner. Therefore, in this study we aimed to …
Handbook Transdisciplinary Learning
e German term Hochschulbildung refers to teaching and learning at a broad range of research and art institutions in tertiary education.Within this sector, Hochschulbildung builds bridges between professional and social e forts on the one hand and scientific endeavours on the other.Its manifestations are shaped by social, cultural, ecological, economic, and political dynamics (e.g.internationalisation and globalization).However, it is itself also …
Integrate the integrators! A call for establishing academic careers for integration experts
Integration is often considered the core challenge and the defining characteristic of inter- and trans-disciplinary (ITD) research. Given its importance, it is surprising that the current system of higher education does not provide permanent positions for integration experts; i.e., experts who lead, administer, manage, monitor, assess, accompany, and/or advise others on integration within ITD projects or programs. Based on empirical results of an…

Conceptualising transdisciplinary integration as a multidimensional interactive process
Integration is a key process in transdisciplinary research and knowledge co-production. Nonetheless, it is often used as a buzzword without specifying what exactly it means or what actually happens during integration. We propose conceptualizing integration as a multidimensional interactive process. We characterize it as an open-ended learning process without pre-determined outcomes. Integration designates relations established throughout a transd…
Expertise in research integration and implementation for tackling complex problems: When is it needed, where can it be found and how can it be strengthened
Expertise in research integration and implementation is an essential but often overlooked component of tackling complex societal and environmental problems. We focus on expertise relevant to any complex problem, especially contributory expertise, divided into ‘knowing-that’ and ‘knowing-how.’ We also deal with interactional expertise and the fact that much expertise is tacit. We explore three questions. First, in examining ‘when is expertise in r…
Linking transdisciplinary research projects with science and practice at large: Introducing insights from knowledge utilization
Typologies of Interdisciplinarity: The Boundary Work of Definition
The dominant structure of knowledge in the twentieth century was division into domains of disciplinary specialization. In the latter half of the century this system was challenged by an increasing number of interdisciplinary activities. This chapter examines typologies of interdisciplinary activities, identifying patterns of consensus and fault lines of debate from the first major classification scheme in 1970 and continues to recent taxonomies t…

Introduction—New Directions/Cities and Rivers: Interdisciplinary Studies in Knowledge Production
Over the course of the last six years, New Directions: Science, Humanities, Policy has taken a case-study approach to questions concerning the nature of knowledge production. Launched in 2001, New Directions promotes interdisciplinary collaborations where physical scientists, social scientists, and humanists work together with public science agencies, the private sector, and communities to deepen our understanding of and develop effective respons…

The Evolution of a Body of Knowledge: Interdisciplinary Problem-Focused Research
Since World War II there has been a growing momentum for interdisciplinary problem-focused research (IDR) performed by teams of disciplinary specialists. Increased efforts to understand the nature and successful management of IDR have led to an exponential increase in, and a growing consolidation of scholarship on the subject. By tracing the evolution of the current body of knowledge on IDR, we can not only determine the sociological and epistemo…

Transdisciplinarity: Joint Problem Solving among Science, Technology, and Society
What kind of science do we need today and tomorrow? In a game that knows no boundaries, a game that contaminates science, democracy and the market economy, how can we distinguish true needs from simple of fashion? How can we distinguish between necessity and fancy? whims How can we differentiate conviction from opinion? What is the meaning of this all? Where is the civilizing project? Where is the universal outlook of the minds that might be capa…
