Description Kuhn's Structure of Scientific Revolutions has been cited by sociologists of science more than any other book. In this article, the author examines the impact of Kuhn's Structure of Scientific Revolutions to sociologists studying norms, deviance, performance, evaluation, specialities and to those studying laboratory practice, belief-change, discursive practice, interests and economics. The author argues that Kuhn's theoretical framework and conceptual lexicon once enabled fruitful sociology of science but now impedes it.ABSTRAKPara pakar sosiologi sains telah merujuk buku Kuhn, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, lebih banyak daripada buku-buku lain. Penulis mengkaji dampak buku Kuhn itu terhadap pakar-pakar sosiologi yang mengkaji norma, pencapaian, penilaian, pengkhususan di samping amalan makmal, perubahan kepercayaan, amalan dialog ekonomi dan kepentingan. Penulis menunjukkan bahawa wawasan Khun sememangnya pada suatu ketika memajukan sains sosiologi tetapi sekarang ia telah menghalang perkembangan itu.
