Monoliteracy is an academic concept and research domain investigating the state of possessing functional competence or expertise in only a single domain, mode, or field of knowledge or practice. It fundamentally contrasts with the development and application of multiple literacies across diverse areas. This concept examines the characteristics, causes, and consequences of such restricted competence, exploring its implications for individual adaptability, social participation, and educational paradigms; its significance lies in highlighting the limitations and vulnerabilities associated with a narrow scope of literacy in increasingly interconnected and multidisciplinary contexts.
