The Eighth French Philosophy of Mathematics Workshop (FPMW 8) is the eighth in an annual series of workshops in philosophy of mathematics organized by a team of scholars from France and abroad that recently joined in a research group funded by the French National Research Center (CNRS): GDR3719  Philosophie des Mathématiques. The website of the research group can be found at the following address: http://www.sphere.univ-paris-diderot.fr/spip.php?rubrique145&lang=fr

Information about past workshops in the series can be found at the following address: http://www.math.univ-toulouse.fr/FPMW/ (tab: Historique).

The forthcoming workshop will be held at the Center for Comparative Epistemology and Ergology (CEPERC) at the University of Aix-Marseille. It will consist, as the previous workshops, in a three-day meeting, and will feature both invited and contributed talks.

Christophe Eckes (Archives Poincaré, Université Lorraine, France)

Sara Negri (Department of Philosophy, University of Helsinki, Finland)

Jean-Michel Salanskis (Institut de recherches philosophiques, Université Paris Ouest, France)

 

Submissions of papers in any topic of philosophy of mathematics are welcome. The languages of the workshop are French and English. Younger scholars and graduate students working on their dissertations are encouraged to submit, as the workshop will provide them with an opportunity to discuss their work with internationally renowned experts in the field.

Each submission should be no more than 15,000 characters.

Contributions should be submitted online, creating a personal account on the website https://fpmw8-2016.sciencesconf.org/ and uploading a .doc .rtf or .pdf file containing the proposal in an anonymous form. Please specify in Comments if you are a PhD student.

Should you encounter difficulties, you can send your proposal to the address: fpmw8-2016 at sciencesconf.org writing [abstract] in the topic of your message. Proposals should include in the text of the message the following information: title of the paper, email address and affiliation of the author(s).
