This article aims to discuss de possibilities of application, to the Human Sciences, the concept of “paradigm”. They are discussed, in the first moment, the classical definitions and approached proposed by Thomas Kuhn in the essay Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962). In a second moment, it is discussed the necessity of adaptations of the concept in the ambit of Human Sciences, considering that sciences as History, Sociology, Anthropology and Geography are multiparadigmatics. The articulation between the concepts of “Disciplinary Matrix” and “Paradigms” can be presented as an interesting theory alternative. The example of the History is presented to illustrate a situation that can be extending to other human sciences
