Which aspects of disciplinarity are valuable and need to be maintained? Which are unnecessarily rigid? Is the proliferation of "new" disciplines, for example gender studies and ethnic studies, a positive step toward producing innovative scholarship or a regression into academic isolationism? Are scholars who write within traditional disciplinary boundaries running the risk of irrelevance? What roles can or should the humanities play in the face of advancing globalization? What will the landscape of the humanities look like if disciplinary boundaries continue to erode?
