Epistemology and Instrumentalization of Interdisciplinary Studies: an Itinerary on Science, Methodology and Feminist Perspective in Research

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The positivist and Cartesian influence on what we know today as science determines a compartmentalization of knowledge that can be an obstacle to the studies of complex society. In this sense, interdisciplinary works are options for the construction of knowledge that not only reflects reality, but that serves to build a better society. Interdisciplinarity, however, needs to be connected to a methodological rigor that guarantees the scientificity of the knowledge built. In this sense, this article aims to outline a hypothetical-deductive theoretical itinerary regarding the multiple possibilities of interdisciplinary work, which involve overcoming the compartmentalization of knowledge built from an obsolete epistemology, towards a science with an objective perspective, which comes to be illustrated from feminist studies.
