ParadigmaEl concepto de paradigma (un vocablo que deriva del griego paradeigma) se utiliza en la vida cotidiana como sinónimo de “ejemplo” o para hacer referencia a algo que se toma como “modelo”. En principio, se tenía en cuenta a nivel gramatical (para definir su uso en un cierto contexto) y se valoraba desde la retórica (para hacer mención a una parábola o fábula). A partir de la década del ’60, los alcances de la noción se ampliaron y ‘paradigma’ comenzó a ser un término común en el vocabulario científico y en expresiones epistemológicas cuando se hacía necesario hablar de modelos o patrones. | |
