A number of scholars have drawn attention to the similarities between the dynamics of scientific and technological development (Constant 1980; De Solla Price 1984; Clark 1987). Most strikingly, both scientists and engineers self-organise themselves into networks which are characterised by shared cognitive and social codes that make up a paradigm. Following Kuhn’s notion of paradigm in science, economists have started to study technologies in terms of technological paradigms (Dosi 1982).
