Resumen: |
En este volumen pionero, destacados académicos de diversos orÃgenes en humanidades, ciencias sociales y diferentes áreas de estudio abogan por un papel más diferenciado y autorreflexivo de la ciencia basada en áreas en la producción global de conocimiento. Considerando que la movilidad de personas, bienes e ideas hace que el mundo sea más complejo y que las categorÃas geográficamente fijas se vuelvan cada vez más obsoletas, los autores piden que se refleje este nuevo dinamismo en la investigación, la enseñanza y la teorización. De este modo, el libro va más allá de la división construida entre estudios de área y disciplinas sistemáticas y, en cambio, propone formas metodológicas y conceptuales para fomentar la integración de epistemologÃas marginadas y a menudo ignoradas. Los ensayos sobre la dimensión ontológica, teórica y pedagógica de los estudios de área destacan cómo las prácticas cotidianas de movilidad de las personas desafÃan a los académicos, estudiantes y profesionales de los estudios de área inter y transdisciplinarios a trascender los lÃmites cognitivos en los que operan actualmente las mentes académicas. |

Summary : |
In this pioneering volume, leading scholars from a diversity of backgrounds in the humanities, social sciences, and different area studies argue for a more differentiated and self-reflected role of area-based science in global knowledge production. Considering that the mobility of people, goods, and ideas make the world more complex and geographically fixed categories increasingly obsolete, the authors call for a reflection of this new dynamism in research, teaching, and theorizing. The book thus moves beyond the constructed divide between area studies and systematic disciplines and instead proposes methodological and conceptual ways for encouraging the integration of marginalized and often overseen epistemologies. Essays on the ontological, theoretical, and pedagogical dimension of area studies highlight how people's everyday practices of mobility challenge scholars, students, and practitioners of inter- and transdisciplinary area studies to transcend the cognitive boundaries thatscholarly minds currently operate in. |
