| Résumé: | This article explores the question of interdisciplinarity in theology. Interdisciplinarity differs from multidisciplinarity because of its integration of different disciplines into a single synthesis. However, integration is problematic because it may lead to selectivity that may have consequences for scholarship. Integration implies a political choice of inclusion and exclusion. The subjugated knowledges of the subaltern groups have been historically undermined by western scholarship, interdisciplinarity attempts to reclaim and insert these knowledges into researches in the academic world. Thus, integration should be modified by hybridity. Theology receives special attention because it has undergone negotiation and transformation into a hybrid discourse of western and indigenous knowledges. |
