Systems transdisciplinarity chair as pathway to fulfill global ‘Social Orders.

Abstract

This paper shows how modern transdisciplinarity is developing into two main directions: ‘transdisciplinarity for scientific research’ as well as ‘transdisciplinarity for education’. These orientations have individual goals and objectives. The transdisciplinarity for scientific research helps to complete the transformation of the potential for interdisciplinary interaction and the integration of disciplines. Whereas transdisciplinarity for education develops in a wide range – from the formation of tolerance and pluralism in the worldview of students to the training of master’s students in a systems transdisciplinary discipline (metadiscipline) at a special university chair. The paper analyzes the reasons why the idea of a mobile transdisciplinary chair in 1997 was not widely adopted. In turn, a rationale is given that, for objective reasons, the idea of a classical transdisciplinary chair can be implemented in interested universities after 2026.

Keywords: transdisciplinarity, higher education, transdisciplinary chair, sustainable development.
