Foram realizadas 52 entrevistas e um workshop em um período pouco superior a um ano como parte de um projeto de história dos 50 anos de uma agência de fomento. Esse material (a evidência oral) é o material primário utilizado neste presente estudo. Também foram utilizadas 17 entrevistas de um projeto de história dos 40 anos da mesma agência. O material foi lido e foram retirados trechos relacionados a um possível conceito de ciência que poderia ser abstraído dessa evidência oral. Além disso, foram estudados os conceitos de ciência de alguns autores (Donald Stokes, Fernand Braudel, Francis Bacon, Karl Popper, Paul Feyerabend, Thomas Kuhn e Vannevar Bush). Esses conceitos e citações de suas obras foram apresentados (evidência escrita). Em seguida, foram apresentados aproximações e distanciamentos dessas duas evidências. Finalmente, um conceito de ciência resultante, ou o caminho percorrido pelo conceito de ciência, foi apresentado. Conceito este que se baseia primariamente na evidência oral. A possibilidade de formular um conceito de ciência não baseado somente nessa evidência, mas a utilizando primariamente, era o objetivo principal deste estudo. / 52 interviews and a workshop were performed in a period just over a year as part of a 50-year history project of a research funding agency. This material (the oral evidence) is the primary material used in the present study. 17 interviews of a 40-year history project of the same agency were also used. The material was read and excerpts were extracted related to a possible concept of science which could be abstracted from such oral evidence. Moreover, the concepts of science of some authors were studied (Donald Stokes, Francis Bacon, Karl Popper, Paul Feyerabend, Thomas Kuhn e Vannevar Bush). These concepts and quotations from their works were presented (written evidence). Next, similarities and dissimilarities of both evidences were presented. Finally, a resulting concept of science, or the path walked by the concept of science, was presented. Such concept is based primarily on the oral evidence. The possibility of formulating a concept of science not based only on this evidence, but using it primarily, was the main objective of this study.

Summaries in Afrikaans and English / Text in Afrikaans / In hierdie proefskrif word daar gekonsentreer op die bewyslas in die nywerheidshof omdat die nywerheidshof se benadering met betrekking tot die bewyslas verskil van geval tot gevaL afhangende van die aard van die regshulp waarvoor die party je die nywerheidshof nader. In die tweede plek volg 'n bespreking van hoe en deur wie die voorlegging van getuienis aan die nywerheidshof mag geskied, hetsy by wyse van dokumente of getuies en daarbenewens oak 'n bespreking van watter soort getuienis aan die nywerheidshof voorgele mag word met spesifieke verwysing na inter alia, klankopnames, videobande en die resultate van leuenverklikkertoetse. / In this thesis there will be concentrated on the burden of proof in the industrial court because the industrial court's approach in regard to the burden of proof differs from case to case, depending on the nature of the legal aid for which the party /ies approaches the industrial court. In the second place a discussion will follow of how and by whom the presenting of evidence can be done, whether by documents or by witnesses, and in addition thereto also a discussion on which sort of evidence can be presented to the industrial court with specific reference to, inter alia, taperecordings, video tapes and the results of lie-detector tests. / Private Law / LL.M.
