In this essay, we used the intellectual trajectory of Karl Marx to counter the hegemonic position concerning interdisciplinarity, which states that interdisciplinarity depends on the education of collectives. We affirm that it is possible to be interdisciplinary and undertake research of this nature, as an individual, as long as there is an option for engagement and commitment to an omnilateral perspective. This possibility collides with the currently predominant institutional and curricular organization, which leads to fragmentation, through a focus on distinct disciplines. However, this finding should not be an excuse not to confront the hegemonic current situation of knowledge production and the various forms of engagement simply because the systemic perspective is disciplinary. In this sense, it is pedagogical to review aspects of the Marxian educational trajectory and praxis to envision alternatives to the currently predominant positions, whether they give priority to disciplines, or extolling as a (pre)condition the constitution of groups, the collective, to consider triggering formative processes and actions or interdisciplinary praxis. Thinking of the formation of researcher-subjects and collectives from the totality of disciplinary specialists, from the perspective presented here, would be an assault to the concept of interdisciplinarity.
