The integration of issues related to sustainability in management curricula is a subject of growing interest, especially as organizations – businesses and universities alike – are urged to take their share of responsibilities in the face of crises and need to deeply transform our lifestyles towards a more sustainable world. This article's purpose is to explore the challenges and opportunities of integrating sustainability issues in business schools' curricula. The conceptual argument developed in the article leads us to suggest that the integration of sustainability in management schools could be conceptualized as a trajectory of continuous improvement over time.

This article examines the links between international development (ID) and social work (SW) from an interdisciplinary perspective. We assess the extent to which ID and SW are linked in practice, teaching and research through the four-dimension concept of disciplinary convergence that encompasses problems, paradigms, people and products or solutions. Based on a literature review, an analysis of course offerings and collaborative autoethnography, we argue that although there is some convergence of the two disciplines at the level of practice, this is less the case in teaching and research. Moreover, we show that convergence can have negative aspects as both disciplines maintain a technical approach that is often at odds with the deeply political issues they wish to address. Finally, ID would benefit from being enriched by certain elements of SW to strengthen its understanding, teaching, and practice, and ultimately better respond to current social issues in a transnational world.

Interdisciplinary dialogue that take place between the various domains of human experience can manifest itself in many forms. For exemple, it is well known that different percolation processes have often taken place between arts and science. What are, in contemporary theatre, the recent manifestations of this astonishing process? What can emerge from that kind of amalgam? While observing what became central in Jean-Pierre Ronfard's creative process, we will discuss here some of the many possibilities offered by that percolation. Seeing a "secret bond" between theatre and physiology, Ronfard has integrated to his practice and to his reflection some of Claude Bernard's principles of experimental physiology. While analysing some of Ronfard's theatrical experimentation—Les objets parlent, Autour de Phèdre, La voix d'Orphée—we will examine how this inventive interdisciplinary appropriation allows him to perpetrate the delicate fusion of theoric reflection and artistic practice.

The methods used in corpus linguistics are very relevant in order to analyze how terminology works within texts. The first part of the paper puts forward arguments explaining how these methods are relevant. These methods focus on the lexicon, but also allow to study other phenomena related to linguistics, syntax, semantics or discourse. In fact, the main point in textual terminology is that what is studied is actual uses, since the analysis takes into account both linguistic and extra-linguistic contexts. Textual terminology is therefore relevant not only for defining terms, but also for achieving other kinds of aims. The paper presents how those methods may be used in a multidisciplinary situation dealing with the emergence of a new field, i.e. exobiology. We show how three types of clues (formal, quantitative and distributional) are used in order to identify polysemy, synonymy or loanwords. The approach is also relevant to identify whether these phenomena are deliberate, and when they can be a source of conflict. In such a study, the role of experts is crucial, not only in order to validate the results but also because they are end users of the results. Finally, we hope that by presenting them with a wide range of linguistic phenomena in a multidisciplinary corpus dealing with exobiology, we can contribute to the definition of this new field.

RÉSUMÉ: Le curriculum implanté en 2001 offre diverses orientations qui mettent l'insistance sur l'interdisciplinarité (Gouvernement du Québec, 2001). Puis, tout récemment, le nouveau référentiel des compétences professionnelles vient réaffirmer l'importance de cette pratique par les enseignants dans les milieux scolaires (Gouvernement du Québec, 2020). Il apparait donc pertinent de connaitre les différentes pratiques actuelles des enseignants en matière d'interdisciplinarité, leur sentiment de compétence à le faire ainsi que leurs besoins actuels de formation à cet égard, ce que peu de recherches offrent. La présente recherche, qui s'inscrit dans un devis de type quantitatif descriptif, a comme objet d'étude les pratiques déclarées et le sentiment de compétence des enseignants du primaire quant à l'enseignement des mathématiques dans une visée d'interdisciplinarité. L'étude poursuit les objectifs suivants : …

As field philosophy is gaining greater attention in the current academic world, one issue remains largely ignored : how does it relate to feminist epistemologies ? It is strange to note the silence of field philosophers regarding this critical heritage. Why this silence ? Is it simply that the bridge has not yet been built and remains to be discovered ? Or are there deeper reasons for the lack of dialogue between the two ? In this article, we propose to tackle this problem. Although field philosophers share a number of concerns with feminist epistemologies, most of them continue to work within a paradigm that we call non-feminist. This is why we think it important to consider a feminist reconstruction of field philosophy.

AbstractThis paper presents the evolution of scientific research on coral reef systems in the field of environment sciences. Coral reef systems were a favourable scientific subject for the development of pluri and interdisciplinarity research. In the 1970's, a coral reef science emerged on common conceptual, methodological and thematical basis. The 1990's opened a new period in the evolution of coral reef research, characterized by the development of transdisciplinarity.

SummaryBecause of its exclusive European focus, the principal paradigm of demographers, the theory of transition and its avatar, sociocultural modernization, result in incorrect interpretations of behavior relating to fertility and the family. Even for those situated within this paradigm, the almost evolutionistic vision of development inherent in it must be abandoned in favor of the analysis of conflicts and tensions. To better understand the demography of developing countries, this paper proposes the construction of a "comprehensive demography", oriented toward interdisciplinarity and characterized by diversification in survey instruments and levels of analysis.
