AGUIRRE GARCIA, Juan Carlos. REPLY TO: IS INCOMMENSURABILITY INCOMPARABILITY?. discus.filos [online]. 2008, vol.9, n.13, pp.113-125. ISSN 0124-6127.

This text raises a discussion with article Is incommensurability incomparability?, such discussion is begun from two elements: first, the reconstruction that the author makes of the Kuhn's concept of incommensurability; second, the holes that she leaves in the exhibition from the structuralist answer to the problem of the rational comparison of theories rivals and the omission of the solid criticism that have been made to this posture. This text, besides being a discussion, seeks to clarify aspects of the work of Kuhn that have been neglected and to examine critically the solution that the Structuralism sketched as promissory.

Keywords : Incommensurability; structuralism; comparability.
