Collectivities, in brief, is a term describing the intellectual and
creative potential of groups. Collectivities then mark a position
in the connection between disciplinary fields; a position that is
simultaneously productive of new knowledge and new politics. In
Collectivities: Politics at the Intersections of Disciplines Robert
Carley looks at the classical ideas and theorists that have
influenced interdisciplinary work in the humanistic and
social-scientific disciplines as well as contemporary cases of
interdisciplinary meeting points, specifically cultural studies,
Chicana/o studies and radical sociology (e.g. critical, liberation,
public, and Marxist approaches). He discusses the intellectual,
creative, and political potential of these groupings. Noting that
interdisciplinary groups often come together to address political
or social problems, Carley provides an analysis of these groupings
as well as ways of understanding their work. He suggests that we
might understand interdisciplinarity as more than merely a
constellation of scholarly fields. By looking at the political
contexts that inform our understanding of as well as the approaches
of interdisciplinary groups Collectivities suggests some new ways
to think about the production of knowledge when it occurs between
disciplines.
