CfP special issue of Topoi on "Mathematical Practice & Social Ontology"

Deadline: Wednesday 1 December 2021

The relationship between mathematics and social ontology is often guided by the question of the possibility of applying mathematics to social sciences, especially economy. As interesting as these questions may be, they neglect the inverse possibility of applying a conceptual analysis derived from social ontology to mathematics. The issue will be devoted to the question whether the distinction between social object and social fact, on the one hand, and between different theoretical approaches to the notion of social fact, can be successfully applied to mathematical practice.

All papers will be double-blind peer-reviewed. Submission is organized through TOPOI's online editorial manager. Papers should not exceed 8000 words (excluding notes).
