Postdisciplinary Knowledge Summary

Postdisciplinary Knowledge by Tomas Pernecky

Postdisciplinary Knowledge is the first book to articulate postdisciplinarity in philosophical, theoretical and methodological terms, helping to establish it as an important intellectual movement of the twenty-first century. It formulates what postdisciplinarity is, and how it can be implemented in research practice.

The diverse chapters present a rich collection of highly creative thought-provoking essays and methodological insights. Written by a number of pioneering intellectuals with a range of backgrounds and research foci, these chapters cover a broad spectrum of areas demonstrating alternative ways of producing knowledge. Essays are interspersed with dialogue, encouraging a comprehensive and engaging discussion on this emerging movement.

Not limited to a specific field or discipline, this will be of great interest to upper-level students and researchers in a wide range of subject areas, including: tourism, sociology, education, psychology, physiotherapy, fine arts, architecture and design, as well as those with a general interest in epistemology and methodology.

About Tomas Pernecky

Tomas Pernecky is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Culture and Society at the Auckland University of Technology (AUT), New Zealand. He is mainly interested in the way social realities are constructed, and the implication and possibilities this denotes for different peoples. His research is broad and multifaceted, ranging from the philosophy of science to specific areas of phenomenology, social constructionism, post-existentialism, sustainable leadership and a host of conceptual, theoretical and methodological issues examined in the context of events, tourism and leisure. Tomas has been officially recognised by receiving the 2014 Vice Chancellors Award for Excellence in Teaching, and the subsequent nomination by AUT for the 2015 Tertiary Teaching Excellence Award (TTEA).
