This essay will review the structure of the proof of Gödel's incompleteness theorem, which states that there are truths about the natural numbers that cannot be deduced within a formal or axiomatic-deductive system of arithmetic. This will be done with the purpose of having a general idea of the proof and the meaning of the theorem, since an understanding of it is necessary to determine if it has important implications in fields other than mathematical logic. Later we will compare the structure of the theorem with the general structure of mathematical paradoxes. Such a comparison is made in order to point out the common structure underlying the proof of the theorem and a paradox.
