IS MATHEMATICS SPECIAL?

Sociological Aspects and Mathematical Practice)

Invited Speakers include:
Eric Brian (Paris)
Juliet Floyd (Boston)
Richard Heinrich (Vienna)
Volker Peckhaus (Paderborn)
Horst Struve (Cologne)
The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers from different
fields interested in the question what makes mathematics special (if
anything). Even if mathematics presents itself or is presented as a
(quasi-)empirical matter, the status of an epistemic exception that
mathematics forms among the sciences asks for explanations.
Papers are welcome from scholars of all disciplines, especially philosophy,
mathematics, sociology, didactics, logic, epistemology, and the historical
sciences. We accept only electronic submissions via the EasyChair system.
Please submit your abstracts (at most 2 pages) as PDF files via
