The Theoretical Analysis of and Practical Turn in Interdiscipline Construction
The setting of Interdisciplinary Category indicates the establishment of the legitimacy of inter-disciplines in the whole discipline system.From the perspective of the policy motivations on interdisciplinary setting,it boils down to the logic of internal development of discipline,social needs aroused by scientific and technological progress,as well as transformation of knowledge production mode,individual development,and the result of the joint action by educational policy and practice.However,in the process of transforming policy into practice,the interdisciplinary construction has been facing"four dilemmas":boundary consciousness of dis-cipline versus fusion consciousness of knowledge,stability of discipline organization versus flexibility of inter-discipline,administrative drive versus internal development need,and the fault line between explicit policy and implicit institutional supply.To promote the sustainable development of interdisciplines,it is urgent to acceler-ate"four turns",from discipline-centered to problem-centered mode,from traditional one-fold discipline orga-nization to disciplinary"ecological rainforest",from administrative orientation to academic orientation,and from policy driven to institutional supply.
