摘要
库恩的"范式"无疑是20世纪科学哲学中最具创见性、也最具争议的哲学概念之一。库恩是在两种不同意义上使用该概念的。一种意义是将"范式"作为科学共同体从事高度收敛的常规科学活动的精神定向工具;另一个更具本质性的意义是将"范式"作为共同体成员共有的解题范例,即认识和理解世界的工具。库恩的"范式"及其认识论意蕴是对传统基础主义认识论的历史主义超越,澄清"范式"的认识论本质对于理解科学的本质及科学发展的特点具有重要的理论和现实意义。
Paradigm is the one of most originally and criticized concept of philosophy of science in 20th. T. S. Kuhn use the concept in the two different meaning that the one is the mental sets by which the scientific community is engaged in normal science, the other is the exemplar that scientific community possess together to understand the world. Kuhn's Paradigm and it's significance of epistemology is transcendence of historism in epistemology. Clarifying the epistemological nature of Paradigm has important theoretical and practical significance to understand the nature of science and scientific development.
