existence of multiple levels of reality, due to the complexity and uncertainty that
The interdisciplinary integrative perspective, according to Morín in 2002,
cited by Balza (2010): allows the "construction of knowledge of reality, which is
neither simple nor complex" (p.93); hence, there must be an efficient interaction
and self-organization of several disciplines; and for that, a new epistemology
must emerge, with a transversal, flexible, open, complementary and integrating
strategic vision to seek the solution of concrete complex problems in the social
reality.
The transdisciplinarity according to Ugas (2016): "refers to the transfer
or exchange of theory, methods from one discipline to another. It also refers to
the meeting of experts to make a diagnosis "(p.66). As this author suggests,
there are three types that respond to the levels of (a) application, (b)
epistemological and (c) conception of new disciplines. All of them lead to the
analysis of the interrelationships of the emergent phenomena in the research
processes that generate new knowledge of reality and socio-educational
imaginaries.
In this sense, Delgado (2011, p.136), states that it is a dialogue of non-
linear disciplinary knowledge for the joint construction of research problems
and for the search for possible solutions. Hence, there is a relationship between
complexity and transdisciplinarity in the educational environment since the
disciplines contribute in education to articulate knowledge to respond to the
anthropological, psychological, sociological, pedagogical conceptions, among
others, that make up the curriculum of all levels of the education system.
In the social context, the imaginaries in the transcomplex realities in
educational research benefit the knowledge communities grouped in the
research lines of the various universities, as well as the socio-educational
areas that are constantly searching for solutions to the problems that afflict
them; they also open in a globalized world, the possibilities of information,
