Call for Participation:
One Hundred Years of Russell's Paradox
International Conference
University of Munich, Germany
Sat June 2 - Tue June 5, 2001
This centennial conference commemorates the discovery of Russell's

thinking about mathematics, and led to the development of the new and
thriving field of mathematical logic.
The conference brings together leading scholars from the following
fields:
Russell Studies
Mathematical Logic
Set Theory
Philosophy of Mathematics
The aim of the conference is to contribute to the understanding of
Russell's discovery in its historical context, and to attempt an
assessment of the meaning of set theory in the light of both current
conceptions and recent technical findings in the above-mentioned fields.
The conference will feature
plenary sessions with distinguished invited speakers
section meetings devoted to the above fields,
with both invited and contributed papers
