Logic in Question 8, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris 14 and 15 may 2018 "Every Spring People Meet in Paris to Discuss about Logic" http://www.logic-in-question.org
This month in Paris there is the commemoration of May 1968, I decided therefore to present at LIQ-8 the talk "Identité et égalité en logique, mathématique et politique" where I examine the relation between Equality in Math and Logic and Equality in Politics, in particular how the notion of equality stands in: 1776 - United States Declaration of Independence 1789 - Declaration of the Rights of the Man and of the Citizen, France 1948 - Universal Declaration of Human Rights and how it makes sense or not from a logico-mathematical point of view. We will also have at LIQ-8, a talk by Anne-Françoise Schmid on Louis Couturat She is the editor of the two-volume correspondance between Couturat and Russell: Correspondance sur la philosophie, la logique et la politique : Bertrand Russell et Louis Couturat, 1897-1913 https://www.amazon.fr/Correspondance-sur-philosophie-logique -politique/dp/284174258X In this correspondance Couturat and Russell talked about lots of diffrent topics, in particular politics - both were pacifist. Unfortunately Couturat died August 4, 1914 when his car was accidentally hit by a military car announcing mobilization of the 1st World War He was born January 17, 1868, and to commemorate the 150th anniversary of his birth we created this year Louis Couturat Logic Prize http://www.uni-log.org/louis-couturat-logic-prize.html part of a series of logic prizes, being developed following the motto A prize of logic in every country! http://www.uni-log.org/logic-prize-world Jean-Yves Beziau
