First International Meeting of the Association for the Philosophy of Mathematical Practice (APMP)
9-11 December 2010, University Foundation, Brussels, Belgium
Over the last few years approaches to the philosophy of mathematics that focus on mathematical practice have been thriving. Such approaches include the study of a wide variety of issues concerned with the way mathematics is done, evaluated, and applied, and in addition, or in connection therewith, with historical episodes or traditions, applications, educational problems, cognitive questions, etc. We suggest using the label “philosophy of mathematical practice” as a general term for this gamut of approaches, open to interdisciplinary work.
In 2009, a group of researchers in this field gathered to promote the creation of the Association for the Philosophy of Mathematical Practice, APMP. This association aims to become a common forum that will stimulate research in philosophy of mathematics related to mathematical activity, past and present, and foster joint actions.
For a full description of the aims of the association see: http://institucional.us.es/apmp/
A call for papers is now open.
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS 30 SEPTEMBER.
Abstracts should be addressed to Bart Van Kerkhove:
