Bill, that is a great point, and I would also say that CST is one area where applying a contextual approach and using transdisciplinary methods would come the most naturally. Of course, nearly all scholars in CST are already taking a transdisciplinary approach. But hopefully ATP will spur some further reflection on how the study and application of CST can be contextual, not just in terms of applying CST to a specific context, but in the more rigorous methodological and epistemological way outlined by Francis.
Yes, one can't get very far into CST w/o dealing with several disciplines. I was thinking especially about the reason why ATP was needed, and why I doubt we will see criticism from those who work in CST.
Thanks for the helpful contribution Matt!
It seems to me that CST is an area where the need for developments along the lines of ATP is most evident. That might make for an interesting post!
