In describing condensed matter, some well established paradigms have allowed much progress to be made in understanding and using materials. But in the last 15 - 20 years, new materials, such as heavy fermions, high temperature superconductors, and now charge density wave-supporting materials, have been shown to require new paradigms in describing them. While much progress has been achieved in that time, we still do not have a widely accepted theoretical description of the nature of their electronic excitations.
