The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (deutsch: Die Struktur wissenschaftlicher Revolutionen) ist ein von Thomas S. Kuhn verfasstes Werk und gilt als Meilenstein der Wissenschaftsgeschichte und Wissenschaftstheorie. Durch das Buch wurden Begriffe wie Paradigma und Paradigmenwechsel popularisiert.

Das erste Mal wurde das Werk als Monographie in International Encyclopedia of Unified Science publiziert. 1962 erschien das Buch in Erstauflage bei der University of Chicago Press – heute ist die dritte Auflage aktuell (1996).

1969 antworte Kuhn mit einem Postskriptum auf Kritiken der ersten Auflage.

Die Entstehung der Werk-Idee führt Kuhn selbst auf das Jahr 1947 zurück. Damals war er Student an der Harvard University.
