Uke 22 - Paradigmer og nivåer

Paradigmer og nivåer

Ulike "paradigmer" omhandler ofte ulike nivå, og kan dermed eksistere samtidig:

Noen sitater:

Science advances one funeral at a time.
Max Planck (1858-1947)


"In order to change an existing paradigm you do not struggle to try and change the problematic model.
You create a new model and make the old one obsolete.
That, in essence, is the higher service to which we are all being called."
Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983)


"Science today is locked into paradigms. Every avenue is blocked by beliefs that are wrong, and if you try to get anything published by a journal today, you will run against a paradigm and the editors will turn it down."
Fred Hoyle (1915-2001)


The competition between paradigms is not the sort of battle that can be resolved by proofs.
Thomas S. Kuhn (1922-1996)


"In brief, we have the new paradigm where simulation and programs have replaced theory and observation, where government largely determines the nature of scientific activity, and where the primary role of professional societies is the lobbying of the government for special advantage."
Richard Lindzen


"The term ‘paradigm‘, from the Greek paradeigma ("pattern"), was used by Kuhn to denote a conceptual framework shared by a community of scientists and providing them with model problems and solutions."
Fritjof Capra
