Abstract
Bu çalışmada önce bilimlerin gelişmesi ile ilgili teorilere işaret edilmiş ve daha sonra Thomas S. Kuhn’un teorisinin genel çerçevesi çizilmeye çalışılmıştır. İkinci bölümde 1920’lerde filizlenen, çok hızlı yayılan ve hakim paradigma haline gelen Keynezyen İktisadın Kuhncu anlamda bilimsel devrim özellikleri gösterip göstermediği tartışılmaktadır. Son olarak, Keynesyen İktisatın Kuhncu anlamda bilimsel devrime ne derecede yakın özellikler gösterdiği ortaya konmaktadır.

Abstract
In this paper firstly the sociology of knowledge theories about progress in sciences is reviewed. Then whether or not the Keynesian departure that took place in the nineteen twenties in macroeconomics was a revolution in the sense of Kuhn’s historiographical framework is examined. Moreover, the framework of Kuhnian scientific revolution which is better in hard sciences such as physics than the others is outlined. Finally, a discussion on whether the Keynesian departure that took pace in 1920’s fits in the Kuhnian framework of a scientific revolution is presented.
