Now: Hybrid/integrative, first short then long:

Terse:
Here are the examples of hybrid or integrated paradigms from each grouping, written on single lines, one word each:

Science: Evolutionary psychology, string theory, geochemistry
Medicine: Integrative medicine, pharmacogenomics, naturopathy
History: Cultural history, gender history, postcolonial history
Law: Comparative law, international law, legal pluralism
Anthropology: Medical anthropology, linguistic anthropology, feminist anthropology
Linguistics: Cognitive linguistics, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics
Psychology: Cognitive-behavioral therapy, positive psychology, evolutionary psychology

—————–
Detail:
Here are some examples of hybrid or integrated paradigms that have a foot in both incompatible camps within each of the groupings:

Science: Evolutionary psychology, which combines elements of evolutionary theory and psychology to understand how evolutionary forces have shaped human cognition and behavior; string theory, which combines elements of quantum mechanics and relativity to try to understand the fundamental structure of the universe; geochemistry, which combines elements of geology and chemistry to study the chemical processes that shape the Earth’s surface and interior.

Medicine: Integrative medicine, which combines elements of Western medicine and traditional medicine to provide a more holistic approach to healthcare; pharmacogenomics, which combines elements of pharmacology and genomics to understand how an individual’s genetic makeup can affect their response to drugs; naturopathy, which combines elements of traditional and natural therapies with elements of Western medicine to promote health and well-being.
History: Cultural history, which combines elements of social, cultural, and intellectual history to understand the ways in which culture shapes and is shaped by historical events and processes; gender history, which combines elements of feminist and traditional history to understand the roles and experiences of men and women in different historical contexts; postcolonial history, which combines elements of traditional and revisionist history to understand the effects of colonialism on colonized peoples and their cultures.

Law: Comparative law, which combines elements of different legal systems to understand how laws vary across different countries or regions; international law, which combines elements of national laws to create a legal framework for international relations; legal pluralism, which recognizes the existence of multiple legal systems within a single society and studies how these systems interact and influence one another.

Anthropology: Medical anthropology, which combines elements of anthropology and medicine to understand how culture shapes health and healthcare practices; linguistic anthropology, which combines elements of anthropology and linguistics to understand the ways in which language shapes and is shaped by culture; feminist anthropology, which combines elements of feminist theory and anthropology to understand the ways in which gender shapes and is shaped by culture.

Linguistics: Cognitive linguistics, which combines elements of cognitive psychology and linguistics to understand the mental processes involved in language use; sociolinguistics, which combines elements of sociology and linguistics to understand the ways in which language varies within and among societies; psycholinguistics, which combines elements of psychology and linguistics to understand the mental processes involved in language production, comprehension, and acquisition.

Psychology: Cognitive-behavioral therapy, which combines elements of cognitive psychology and behaviorism to understand and treat mental health problems; positive psychology, which combines elements of humanistic psychology and cognitive psychology to focus on the positive aspects of human experience; evolutionary psychology, which combines elements of psychology and evolutionary theory to understand the psychological adaptations that have evolved to solve problems faced by our ancestors.
