Abstract

In this article, I will analyze the linguistic paradigm of generative grammar from the point of view of Thomas Kuhn’s philosophy of science. I will show that generative grammar satisfies all of Kuhn’s paradigm criteria. However, according to Kuhn, science is always based on one single paradigm. In contrast to that monoparadigmatic view, I will argue that it is more adequate to assume a multiparadigmatic structure of science. To this end, I will work out the components of the paradigm of generative grammar with a special focus on its empirically immunized, non-falsifiable elements. Further, I will show that linguistics has a multiparadigmatic structure by contrasting generative grammar with the paradigm of construction grammar and describing both approaches as co-existing and competing paradigms. Finally, I will analyze the incommensurability of both paradigms.
