Perspectives on Structuralism, Munich, Germany, 16-18 February 2012

摘要

When recently mentioning an ongoing PhD thesis on the Sneed-Stegmueller structuralism, a well-known senior logician is said to have replied half-jokingly: "So, you will be the one to put out the lights!" Indeed, among some, the structuralist program counts as abandoned, overcome. As speakers and participants to this 3 day meeting can testify, that reputation is undeserved. Funded by a grant to Holger Andreas, this international conference took place at the Center for Advanced Studies of the Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich, Germany. So far the largest European event of its kind, it coincided with the retirement of Prof. C. Ulises Moulines. Amongst many other achievements, he had been instrumental in "exporting" the structuralist program to Spain and Ibero-America.
