CONTEMPORARY ACCOUNTING THEORY3
Introduction
Kuhn has represented revolutionary way out for having the knowledge about science,
about its functions as well as its progression. Scientific practice views by Kuhn are on the basis
of community other than on individuals. Science is considered to be sociological matter in the
community that involves certain norms as well as beliefs that are commonly held and those
functions and regulates as per it. Kuhn had further challenged for long-term scientific procedures
through “The structure of scientific revolution” by giving out idea for transformation that could
not arise due to day to day experiments done or by collection of data (Devlin & Bokulich, 2015).
Kuhn had given a breakthrough with his thoughts as well as ideas that takes place out of normal
science. It can be said that scientific education is a beginning for young research in form of
conventional pattern where there is a practice of science. So, Kuhn introduced the phrase of
“paradigm” that brought about with assumption of scientific community as well as for allowing
for further functioning (Kaiser, 2016). The paradigm has brought about to scientific revolution
that reveals that all ideas needs to get reintegrated into new concept as well as structures them
into newly introduced paradigm. Kuhn’ s revolution has been considerable to be marked as
turning point for philosophical science and for making knowledge objective as a human
knowledge relative field.
Literature review:
Thomas Kuhn represents revolutionary approach in order to show the progresses of
science (Bird, 2014). Kuhn considers science to be as a step towards progression in the form of
leaps from one to other paradigm. With respect to community in the world science is considered
to be sociological concept for having standard as well as common beliefs for helding and
regulating. There is an argument by Kuhn for it and also an example for the scientific education
