INTERDISIPLINARITAS DALAM KAJIAN LINGKUNGAN & PEMBANGUNAN Soemarno, Nopember2013
Environmental studies is the academic field which systematically studies human interaction with the environment. It is a broad interdisciplinary field of study that includes the natural environment, built environment, and the sets of relationships between them.
Environmental studies, encompasses study in the basic principles of learning of the subjects, such as: Kebijakan, politik, hukum, ekonomi, sociologi dan aspek-sosial, perencanaan, pencemaran , Sumberdaya alam, dan Interaksi manusia dan lingkungan sekitarnya.
An interdisciplinary field is a field of study that crosses traditional boundaries between academic disciplines or schools of thought, as new needs and professions have emerged. Originally the term interdisciplinary is applied within education and training pedagogies to describe studies that use methods and insights of several established disciplines or traditional fields of study.
Interdisciplinarity involves researchers, students, and teachers in the goals of connecting and integrating several academic schools of thought, professions, or technologies -- along with their specific perspectives -- in the pursuit of a common task.
"Interdisciplinary studies" is an academic program or process seeking to synthesize broad perspectives, knowledge, skills, interconnections, and epistemology in an educational setting. Interdisciplinary programs may be founded in order to facilitate the study of subjects which have some coherence, but which cannot be adequately understood from a single disciplinary perspective (for example, women's studies or medieval studies). More rarely, and at a more advanced level, interdisciplinarity may itself become the focus of study, in a critique of institutionalized disciplines' ways of segmenting knowledge.
IlmuLingkungan : An interdisciplinary academic field that integrates physical and biological sciences (including physics, chemistry, biology, soil science, geology, and geography) to the study of the environment, and the solution of environmental problems. Environmental science provides an integrated, quantitative, and interdisciplinary approach to the study of environmental systems.
Environmental scientists work on subjects like the understanding of earth processes, evaluating alternative energy systems, pollution control and mitigation, natural resource management, and the effects of global climate change. Environmental issues almost always include an interaction of physical, chemical, and biological processes. Environmental scientists bring a systems approach to the analysis of environmental problems. Key elements of an effective environmental scientist include the ability to relate space and time relationships as well as quantitative analysis.
Lintas Disiplin Ilmu (Rosenfield, 1992) multidisciplinary - researchers in separate disciplines work independently within their own disciplinary perspective, to address a common problem interdisciplinary - researchers work jointly, but from each of their respective disciplinary perspectives, to address a common problem transdisciplinary - researchers work jointly using a shared conceptual framework that draws together discipline-specific theories, concepts, and approaches, to address a common problem Firm boundaries Permeable boundaries No or blurred boundaries Source: Dan Stokols, 2004
Interdisciplinary Starts with disciplines and looks for lines of interest that connect them. • Transdisciplinary Starts with complex problems and looks for new conceptualizations that transform understanding of theory and practice.
Arguments for Transdisciplinarity • The problems we face transcend the disciplinary knowledge we practice. • Universities should be communities of scholars – incubators and testing laboratories of ideas – not confederations of turfdoms. • It’s not either/or! We need disciplinary, interdisciplinary, ANDtransdisciplinary programs in Higher Education.
A Cautionary Tale:The Interdisciplinary Program Builder The captain of the javelin team who won the “toss” and elected to receive.
Barriers to Transdisciplinary “Courtships” • Depth over Breadth Promotion & Tenure • Faculty Recruitment Need for a Core • Curricular Incoherence Certification Monty Hempel, University of Redlands
Advantages of Transdisciplinary Collaboration Greater Explanatory Power Increased Capacity for Synthesis (not just analysis) Better Integration of Science, Management, and Policy Methodological Pluralism Promotes Coupling of Models Builds Foresight Capacity
Disadvantages of Transdisciplinary Collaboration Labor Intensive – Educationally Demanding Cooperation Hard to Sustain (turfdoms) Administratively Complex Breadth vs. Depth Tradeoffs Diffuse vs. Focused Conceptual Models Few Professional Incentives (tenure hurdles, less rewards for team contributions) Weak or Negative Incentive Structures!

Sustainable Development • Sustainable Development is the process by which we move towards sustainability “…development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” (World Commission on Environment and Development, 1987) • This was endorsed in 1992 at the Earth Summit in Rio
Sustainable Development • In May 1999 the UK’s Sustainable Development Strategy was published & defined sustainable development in terms of four objectives • Social progress which recognises the needs of everyone • Effective protection of the environment • Prudent use of natural resources • Maintenance of high & stable levels of economic growth & employment
Key Themes… Sustainable Production & Consumption Fresh Water Management Biodiversity Conservation & Protection
