Multidisciplinary Research in the Social Sciences: Breaking new grounds

Abstract

This article is a commentary on the importance and inevitability of multidisciplinary research (MDR) in academia and in everyday life. The current epidemic, natural disasters, and human-induced crisis scenarios throughout time and space have presented both obstacles and possibilities to recover, restrategize, and reinvent how each global citizen reacts to and lives through these events. The study is an attempt to comprehend the dynamics of multidisciplinary research, which has quietly established itself across disciplines in recent decades, as well as the concerns and challenges confronting the social sciences.Multidisciplinary research is still in its infancy.
