The Broad Model

Kate Clarke

What is the Broad Model?

The Broad Model reflects the instrumentalist focus on problem solving and subsumes the approaches of contextualization, conceptualization, and problem centering (Repko, pg.239).

Repko, Allen F., et al. Introduction to Interdisciplinary Studies. 2nd ed., Sage, 2017.

Why is this model "broad?"

  • draws on all disciplines for insights
  • uses all "disciplinary tools"
  • maps complex problems to reveal their complexity
  • critically evaluates disciplinary insights as well as stakeholder views
  • makes the process of integration explicit and transparent
  • creates common ground among disciplinary insights
