| Description | I can observe a series of movements that suggest that modernity is over. Universities emphasise interdisciplinary research and later specialisation of students. The class society is over, party and religious identification with the group has fallen apart. With the dynamic development of science, it is less and less possible to write a clear identification of the profession we perform on the door of the office. Thus, specialisation leads to a paradoxical overcoming of disciplines and disciplines, to the search for interdisciplinary cooperation and also to the ultimate end of the scientist, like a solitaire. Science is a team-based, but not unified and mono-disciplined matter. The specialisation and technology of science ultimately led to the definitive breakdown of the paradigm concept as the only or strictly dominating thought structure. The paper attempts to reveal what such a move – a transition from early to late modern – can mean to natural, technical and social sciences, and why it should also be interested in philosophy. To what extent is science still formed only by man? |
