This workshop is the seventh in an annual series of workshops in philosophy of mathematics organized by a team of scholars from France and abroad. This is the first instance organized by the GdR in Philosophy of Mathematics (CNRS – INSHS). It will consist, as the previous workshops, in a three-day meeting, and will feature both invited and contributed talks.
