Philosophy of mathematics : set theory, measuring theories, and nominalism /

One main interest of philosophy is to become clear about the assumptions, premises and inconsistencies of our thoughts and theories. And even for a formal language like mathematics it is controversial if consistency is achievable or necessary like the articles in the first part of the publication sh...

520 |a One main interest of philosophy is to become clear about the assumptions, premises and inconsistencies of our thoughts and theories. And even for a formal language like mathematics it is controversial if consistency is achievable or necessary like the articles in the first part of the publication show. Also the role of formal derivations, the role of the concept of apriority, and the intuitions of mathematical principles and properties need to be discussed. The second part is a contribution on nominalistic and platonistic views in mathematics, like the ""indispensability argument"" of W. v. O.
