Summary/Abstract: The article examines consequences of new classification of scientific disciplines by the Poland’s Ministry of Science and Higher Education. The authors argue that the list of scientific disciplines shall not be treated as a mechanical attempt to merge research areas which have defined their subjects, methodologies and paradigms. According to the study activities by the Ministry might be seen rather as an opportunity to search for common areas of interests and collaborations. Therefore, the authors advocate for a federative approach instead of an incorporating one.
