Our aim is to reflect on the relation among different
disciplines (their approaches, points of view, perspectives
and methodologies) and their mutual contribution in tackling
urban phenomena. At the same time, we are convinced that
interdisciplinarity cannot be reduced to the sum of different
knowledge or to the juxtapositions of different approaches.
Interdisciplinarity has meaning and implications that are
(1) theoretical (epistemological and methodological) and (2)
practical (related to how the academic system works). The two
dimensions influence each other.
We present here our reflections in form of conversation.
