Özet

Michel Foucault and Thomas Kuhn concerned with the discontinuity of discourse in the sciences and social disciplines. In 1960s, Kuhn expressed that the natural science reflects in a general sense a sequence of paradigm changes. In 1970s, Foucault claimed a type of discourse about the advancement of scientific knowledge in an extent of human and medical sciences. They both discovered convincing and compelling discontinuities in the history of science and knowledge. The archaic exploration of human knowledge is significant in this appreciation. ‘The power’ linked to reality (the truth) and discourse is the essential driver in this progression. There is reliably a shift in focus while keeping up, conveying and making our structures of convictions (doxa) and feelings. Foucault and Kuhn clarify the extent of “knowledge/discontinuity” principle through separating connections of power on knowledge from the incomparable truth.
