The term interdiscipline or inter-discipline means an organizational unit that involves two or more academic disciplines, but which have the formal criteria of disciplines such as dedicated research journals, conferences and university departments. It is related to interdisciplinarity, but it is a noun used for a certain kind of unit (academic discipline). As shown in the example of demography below a field may be both a discipline and an interdiscipline at the same time. The example of Information science demonstrates that a field may be regarded as a discipline in some countries but an interdiscipline in other countries. ==Conceptions== Giesecke (1981)〔Giesecke, Hermann (1981). ''Indføring i pædagogik''. København: Nyt Nordisk Forlag. German original: ''Einführung in die Pädagogik.'' München: Juventa 1970 (2. Auflage)〕 says about educational research ("Pedagogy") that is an "aporetic science", i.e. an interdiscipline. Tengström (1993) 〔Tengström, E. (1993). Biblioteks- och informationsvetenskapen - ett fler- eller tvärvetenskapligt område? Svensk Biblioteksforskning(1), 9-20.〕 emphases that cross-disciplinary research is a process, not a state or structure. He differentiates three levels of ambition regarding cross-disciplinary research: *The ”Pluridisciplinary” or ”multidisciplinarity” level *The genuine cross-disciplinary level: ”interdisciplinarity” *The discipline-forming level ”transdisciplinarity” What is described here is a view of social fields as dynamic and changing. Library and information science is viewed as a field that started as a multidisciplinary field based on literature, psychology, sociology, management, computer science etc., which is developing towards an academic discipline in its own right. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「interdiscipline」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
