Este trabajo defiende que la especificidad de la biolingüística como (sub)disciplina académica no viene dada por la especificidad de su objeto, que comparte con la lingüística, sino por la del tipo de manipulaciones teóricas a que debe someterlo para acomodarlo a los intereses que comparte con la biología. Defiende además que, a tal efecto, debe caracterizarse por una gran capacidad de síntesis interdisciplinar, que se ilustra con el caso particular de la resolución del problema de la continuidad.
This paper contends that the specificity of biolinguistics as a academic (sub)discipline does not rely on the specificity of its subject matter, which it shares with linguistics at large, but on the specificity of the theoretical manipulations that biolinguistics needs to apply to such a matter in order to accommodate it to the concerns that it shares with biology. The paper also defends that in fulfilling this aim bioliguistics is required to direct itself as a branch of learning with a great capacity of interdisciplinary synthesis. The point is illustrated with the particular case of solving the continuity problem.
