,Seeing a homeless person pushing a cart filled with plastic bags of what most of us
would consider junk is, tragically, a familiar sight in most cities. Disciplinary approaches
to the problem of homelessness typically view it through narrow disciplinary lenses.
Disciplinary experts set forth theoretical explanations of homelessness that tend to
reflect their discipline's narrow perspective on reality. For example, political science
typically views homelessness as a public policy issue, and psychology views it primarily
as a mental health issue. But interdisciplinarity would view homelessness
As a complex problem caused by multiple factors.

The core of the integrationist position is that integration

Over time, says Welch, "the interdisciplinary idea has evolved from a mere critique of
the disciplines to the more sophisticated and pragmatic mission of negotiating within
and beyond the epistemological frameworks they project". The beginnings of
