Mathematical Pluralism

Préface
This Element describes the first comprehensive presentation of a new position in the emerging philosophy of mathematics.

Résumé
Mathematical pluralism is the view that there is an irreducible plurality of pure mathematical structures, each with their own internal logics; and that qua pure mathematical structures they are all equally legitimate. Mathematical pluralism is a relatively new position on the philosophical landscape. This Element provides an introduction to the position.
