Abstract
The emergence of new terminology approaches does not mean that one approach should be used in preference to a previous one. These approaches suggest the structuring of terminology as a scientific research program, as described in Lakatos’s Methodology of Scientific Research Programmes. Specifically, we propose to explore the role of the Communicative Theory of Terminology in the development of the discipline. The heuristic of this approach, the set of rules intended to increase the probability of solving a problem within the discipline, will allow us to determine how the communicative approach contributes to the development of the research program.

Résumé
Du point de vue de la méthodologie du programme de recherche scientifique de Lakatos, l’émergence de nouvelles approches terminologiques ne signifie pas qu’on doive privilégier une approche plutôt qu’une autre. Ces approches doivent plutôt être vues comme celles qui structurent la terminologie comme programme de recherche scientifique. De façon spécifique, nous nous proposons d’explorer le rôle de la théorie communicative de la terminologie dans le développement de la discipline. L’heuristique de l’approche — l’ensemble de règles conçues pour augmenter les possibilités de résoudre un problème dans la discipline — nous permettra de déterminer comment l’approche communicative contribue au développement du programme de recherche terminologique.
