System thinking is again in the air. The perceptions of scientists are growing more general, and we are part of that process. However, interdisciplinarity is viewed mainly from a discipline to discipline vantagenot from the perspective of general systems, from that of wholes. Methodological transfer is far more popular than epistomological integration. That is understandable.
Few individuals can make a living in Philosophy.
Many scientists and technicians make their living applying methodologies to solving problems and forming the future. But methodology that devises its own epistomology often ignores important global considerations and other specialities. No individual can associate information in the learning process without that information being biased by that knowledge to which the information is associated. Likewise, no methodology can assimilate epistomological undergirdings without methodological bias. But it is from such transposition of ideas from one conceptual level to another that useful new paradigms emerge.
