Stember, an author who has studied the interdisciplinary perspective, argues that "the practical argument for interdisciplinarity is that problems of the world are not organized according to academic disciplines." Stember says further that..."Topics concerning human motives, family, groups, institutions, and political and economic life, for example, are the focus of many social science disciplines...Understanding and finding solutions to pressing problems such as health, pollution, communications, and defense require perspectives and knowledge across several disciplines."
Your tasks for this discussion are to:
1. Choose an important, relevant, timely social issue that you think can be studied by sociology as a discipline.
2. Describe the social issue and the units of analysis, research methods, and topics of concern the sociologist would be interested in.
3. Discuss how adding the analysis of a second social science discipline and one of its research methods or methods of data collection (either psychology, anthropology, or gerontology) would contribute to an interdisciplinary analysis of the same social issues and what it would contribute to a greater understanding of the social issue. For example, what would the addition of a psychologist, or an anthropologist, or a gerontologist to the study team add to our understanding of this social issue and why? Do you think we would really learn more about this social issue if we approached the issue using an interdisciplinary perspective and a second data collection approach?
