Paradigms are often difficult to recognize, because they are deeply assumed, and taken for granted.

In social science, paradigms refer to the frameworks or models that shape our understanding of social phenomena. These frameworks influence how we interpret data, formulate theories, and understand human behavior and social structures. Because paradigms are so ingrained in our thinking, they can be challenging to identify or question, even when they may not fully explain the complexities of social reality. Recognizing and critiquing these underlying assumptions is essential for advancing knowledge in social sciences.
