Complex thinking and transdiscipline

Abstract

This study is based on the outlined path that goes from Rationalism conceptualizations and postulates of Classic science as regards the conception of man and life to the paradigms that opened their way to think about current challenges, which, from complexity, debate with human sciences. A world of disciplines studied with certainty and methodical purpose requires another world that goes through, questions and reformulates its postulates from the emergence of crisis and rifts. These are the rifts that trigger off research in complexity, which will provide this work with grounds. The need to define truth scope has encouraged a field of study and diverse philosophical models, which, from Rationalism, have provided truth procedure with a shape. It is from this development that complex thinking advances with its conceptualizations and reflection paradigms, being the objective to delimit the concepts that question deterministic postulates and to delve into the meaning of scientific revolution in the 19th century. Sciences entry in the development process breaks away from conceptualizations of isolated procedures, aiming at transversal communication among the heterogeneous. If the challenge is knowledge advance, its progress, nest in uncertain complexity.
