Sažetak
Although he worked in a period during which disciplinarity was the dominant scientific approach, Croatian philosopher and pedagogue Stjepan Matičević (1880–1940) displayed an ambivalent attitude toward it and proposed new approaches. In twelve works written between 1912 and 1940, he first affirmed disciplinarity through his efforts to establish pedagogy as an independent science, while at the same time warning of its negative consequences for society, science, education, and the individual. Afterwards, he proposed new approaches that implied cooperation among sciences: from methodological parallelism, which bears features of multidisciplinarity, to the intertwining and complication of methods and insights, as well as their integration, which correspond to the features of interdisciplinarity. Given the period during which he recorded his reflections, it is justified to regard him as one of the earlier Croatian philosophers who critically examined disciplinarity and advocated scientific approaches that were established only decades later as multi- and interdisciplinarity.
