The Fusion Of Science And Humanities In The View Of Kuhn's Paradigm Theory

The biggest difference between Kuhn's paradigm theory and the traditional mainstream philosophy of science is that the social and historical factors are putted into the science, which outlined a new image and provided ideological information when we discuss for the fusion of science and the humanities.To understand the paradigm theory, achieve the integration of science and humanities, three aspects must be considered: First, the scientific community. Scientific community is paradigm's producer,confirm and defender, the scientific factors and human factors, the convergence and divergence take common role in the formation of scientific community; second , metaphysical belief. This is highlighted by Kuhn's paradigm, that belief provides the basis for scientific and standards, and strengthen the forces of the scientific theory; Third ,example. Examples of scientists are to learn through imitation of the practice, but it is not a simple imitation, is to look for a suitable structure to imitate the similarity, and create incommensurability the transformation of the world. It is precisely these three areas will be directly injected the human factors into science, this is many scientific philosophers unwilling to acknowledge, however, is the key to integration of science and humanities.Kuhn's paradigm theory restored people as the original status of science, resumed the social and historical as background of science, this is an extremely important and positive significance. However, Kuhn's paradigm theory also creates an excessive emphasis on the humanities and thus loses objectivity of the science, it could not be avoided problems, and we must honestly distinction between science, scientific theory and the"truth"of the scientific theory. We can while maintaining objectivity really realizes the integration of science and humanities.
