Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions: 50 years on

The Structure of Scientific Revolutions: 50 years on

Aside from disconnected/unbalanced Profit, with its ease of Reality suppression (Milgram Obedience principle), Kuhn addresses other structures keeping 21st century science stuck in oil, elementary and deadly nuclear application, corn, inefficient wind/solar/geo/tidal - Concepts so limited in a future vision of energy evolution, as to be relegated to a "retarded" category of human expression, and worse, leading toward human extinction itself.

Constant backup reminder of 60 Years Past Due Energy Evolution

Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions: 50 years on (and New obstacles to paradigm evolution)

https://theconversation.edu.au/thomas-kuhns-the-structure-of-scientific-revolutions-50-years-on-6586

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the original publication of Thomas Kuhn’s famous book, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions. Kuhn, who taught at Berkeley, Princeton and MIT following studies in physics at Harvard, was a historian of science whose ideas have had a major impact on the philosophy of science.

Now in its third edition, Structure has had a lasting influence on our thinking about science. After 50 years, Kuhn’s ideas show signs of wear. But they continue to shape our “image of science”, to echo Kuhn’s own turn of phrase in the opening lines of Structure. (read on)

THE MAJOR CULPRIT TO PARADIGM CHANGE/GROWTH IN SCIENCE TODAY IS:

No wonder more and more American kids are living in cars with their parents

MODERN DAY TABOO: Stanley Milgram (infamous Milgram Experiment) showed how deadly and incapacitated a people/nation (Nazis) became as they followed the Voice of Authority in mob-like trance. So too, against all odds, E=MC2 remains stagnant over 100 years, with the people's belief firmly entrenched by their MASTER's authority that fission and fusion with deadly radiation are the only means to access "nuclear energy". http://freedomtimes.blogspot.com/ . As the science of "What's Real", especially in energy stagnates, the escape to trivia mushrooms, and the "rise and fall" cycle of civilizations follow close behind – like a broken record without intelligence Repeat Repeat Repeat Repeat…..........
How many billions worldwide, now dead by starvation, poverty, disease, malnutrition, water shortage, no medical, lack of sanitation, since the late 40’s, when cheap, almost free, and unlimited energy systems became available to avoid AND PREVENT these atrocities still continuing today in the age of 21st CENTURY SCIENCE MARVELS?

Based on Ben's pic statement, there appear to be major elements missing in contemporary constitutional times

Fundamental Evolutionary Processes

(T. Troward): "So careful of the type it seems, So careless of the single life", a maxim rises from esoteric realms. Intelligence works by the law of averages which provide a wide margin of accident and failure to the individual. The progress toward higher intelligence is always in the direction of narrowing down this margin of accident and taking the individual more and more out of the law of averages, and substituting the law of individual selection, survival of the fittest. It may, therefore be taken as an established fact that in proportion as intelligence advances the individual ceases to be subject to a mere law of averages and has a continually increasing power of controlling the conditions of his own survival."

Statistically, this period of evolution is now almost entirely under the control of conscious human intent and will, and far less influenced by unconscious instinct, genetic mutation and natural selection. Conscious intelligence through human intent usurped unconscious instinct, genetic mutation and natural selection as the evolutionary driver somewhere back in caveman days. Science and Technology, Humanity's extended senses, are at the Steering Wheel today. Blind Science and Technology with Corporate secrecy, power, greed and lies, and Humanity can kiss it's x#s goodbye.

Does the Future have a chance?

As common sense in science is lost with the continued stagnation of our energy base and deep troubling theoretical foundational issues in physics, so too, Civilization's Survival Parameters fly out of sight, out of mind, along with the values and morals inherent within new scientific understanding which new energy systems would reveal. Scientific Stagnation bodes an ill wind to evolution, sustainability, and survival as "cycles of humiliation, dumbing us down, violence & resource wars" join hands with global warming and ecological imbalance to precipitate the historical "rise and fall" - a Tsunami accelerating toward us with a far more spectacular event than the legends and myths of 'Atlantis and Lemuria"........ had more people known that Energy from Corn (or going backwards to a dimwitted concept of radioactive nuclear power application ) sounded a wee bit kindergartenish and senile for the twenty first century......the Future may have had a chance.
