Abstract

Disciplines have contrasting substance and syntax, ways of organizing themselves and of defining rules for making arguments and claims that others will warrant. They have different ways of talking about themselves and about the problems, topics, and issues that constitute their subject matters. The evolution of a discipline begins with knowledge which develops through social experience or interaction between human beings and the environment in the form of a personalized experience of a particular cultural milieu which might have typical connotations and gets translated into universally applicable terms. The knowledge that a society possessed has been developed into the status of disciplines and its diversification and specialisation results in further fragmentation of knowledge in to new disciplines.
