  • From S to 9 July 1979, a meeting was held in West Berlin on the social history of nineteenth-century mathematics. The Workshop was organized by the Institut fur Philosophie, Wissenschaftstheorie, Wissenschaftsund Technikgeschichte of the Technische Universitat Berlin, and sponsored by the Stiftung Volkswagenwerk and Project PAREX (a European programme of cooperative research in the social studies of science). Participants came from Canada, Denmark, France, Italy, the Netherlands, the UK, the USA, and West Germany. They represented the fields of history of mathematics and physics, pedagogy of mathematics, philosophy, and the sociology of science. The Workshop was the third in a series of meetings, all jointly sponsored by Project PAREX, devoted to the sociology and social history of mathematics. I The purpose of the meeting was the discussion in a larger, interdisciplinary group of the subject, methods and results of the social history of mathematics, as well as an attempt to develop a perspective for future research and cooperation. Since research in the field is strongly concentrated on mathematics in the nineteenth century, the Workshop was devoted to that period. Besides a survey lecture, by Dirk J. Struik (MIT), on 'Mathematics in the Early Nineteenth Century', the following papers were presented:
