Undisciplining Knowledge: The Past and the Future of Interdisciplinarity
Based on the first comparative and critical history of interdisciplinary initiatives and programs in the modern university, Harvey J. Graff presents a multi-level analysis that interweaves, first, a discussion and criticism of the ideals, theories, and practices associated, sometimes contradictorily, with notions of interdisciplinarity; and second, a social, institutional, and intellectual history of efforts identified or presented as interdisciplinary over the 140 years of the modern university.Presentaion abstract and speaker bio at https://www.rit.edu/academicaffairs/sois/codroi
