Abstract

Present paper interrogates and discusses the place of interdisciplinary inquiry in
the field of social sciences. The focus is on origination, need and the nature of
interdisciplinary inquiry and the emerging movements towards the integration
of the disciplines. In addition to looking into the politics of interdisciplinarity,
present viewpoint tried to problematize classism, Eurocentrism and dominant
meta-theory in the disciplinary constructions, showing the paradox inherent in
its formation.
