RETRACTED: Future call for policy making to speed up interdisciplinarity between natural and social sciences and humanities in countries such as India

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Science is the erudite methodical systematic practises to study the structure and behaviour of natural objects and/or phenomena. It clearly unknot about the fact that science is a human (society) need based process that starts with social affairs, for example, need to exchange emotion and cognitive processes (psychology), feelings (literature), relation (sociology), money (economics) etc. Humanities are the use of approaches that are predominantly hypothetical but critical, and have a noteworthy historical component, and the methodical aspects distinguish it from the mainly experiential approaches of the science. The basic approaches in both remains the same that it needs a hypothesis, sound methodology, and interpretation of data. Human is the end user in both the cases. So, why only interdisciplinary research focused on the core subjects of science? For example, philosophy, deals with general and vital complications relating to matters including existence, knowledge, language, attitude, behaviour, values, ethics, reason, mind, peace and harmony in life which can be essentially a part of science (especially natural sciences and more particularly animals sciences such as zoology) or vice versa could be true. The current and future time will allow us to believe on such concept, is the main theme of the current article. METHODS: Articles from all published sources are considered for answering the objective that why not concentrating to speed up interdisciplinarity. Few tables and figure are reproduced or redrawn as per the need. And numerical data are collected to present the current status of the interdisciplinarity and the need of the pace it requires. RESULTS: It is noticed that number of research articles on interdisciplinarity in comparison to several core subject area in major databases including environmental biology are still negligible. Countries still need to inter-collaborate at interdisciplinary level for the development and benefit of human race. This needs to be done mainly at socio-economic, intercultural and scientific levels. Although numbers of steps are taken such as establishment of interdisciplinary institutes, introduction of interdisciplinary courses, interdisciplinary research and publication platforms in specialized dedicated journals, still concrete steps to introduce the course of interdisciplinarity at educational and professional level is wanting. CONCLUSION: Therefore, policy on pace in interdisciplinarity across science and humanities is highly wanting especially in developing countries to fix several national and international issues. Present article deals with the current status and future prospective or policies required on interdisciplinarity.
