Interdisciplinarity in Theology



Interdisciplinarity has become quite a popular word. Google gives you 5.9 million sites in 0.27 seconds for the word interdisciplinarity. It comes around with a host of other variants made possible by differing prefixes (e.g., pluridisciplinarity, transdisciplinarity, multidisciplinarity, cross-disciplinarity) which, by themselves, are also reflective of a specific linguistic formation common to postmodern and postcolonial thinking, e.g., border crossing, transgression, liminality, hybridity, interface, interstitiality, between and betwixt, mestisaje, creolization, Third Space, etc. On the one hand, the discourse of interdisciplinarity is a timely theme in theological reflection as it engages with contemporary intellectual horizons. On the other hand, it also serves as a critique to the highly specialized, isolationist and exclusionary paradigms of modern Western sciences. In a sense, it serves as a 'post' not only in the sense of being 'after' something but also of being 'beyond' highly 'disciplinary' worldviews.
