A “paradigm shift” refers to a fundamental change in the underlying assumptions or frameworks that shape our understanding and interpretation of reality within a particular field or discipline. The term, popularized by the philosopher Thomas Kuhn in his 1962 work “The Structure of Scientific Revolutions,” describes how scientific revolutions often occur not through incremental growth but through significant shifts in perspective. A paradigm shift can lead to new theories, concepts, and methodologies that redefine the standards and practices within a given area. It contrasts with the traditional model of scientific progress, highlighting periods where established norms are challenged and replaced by new ways of thinking. Such shifts can have profound implications not only in science but also in various domains, including sociology, economics, and technology, often affecting societal views and behaviors. Overall, a paradigm shift signifies a transformative change in how a collective group conceptualizes and approaches a certain phenomenon or problem.
