“Tirer d’eux leurs secrets”
What was Leibniz’s approach to artisanal knowledge? And how did he consider it with respect to mathematical, and more concretely, to geometrical knowledge? On the one hand, Leibniz emphasizes several times in his writings that one should extract “secrets and inventions” from the artisans. On the other hand, Leibniz points out that such artisans cannot formulate by themselves the geometric principles at the base of their machines. In this paper, w…
On metaphors of mathematics
How can metaphors account for the formation of mathematical concepts, for changes in mathematical practices, or for the handling of mathematical problems? Following Hans Blumenberg’s thought, this paper aims to unfold a possible answer to these questions by viewing the metaphorical frameworks accompanying these changes as essential for an understanding of how changes in mathematical practices have been accounted for. I will focus especially on ca…

At the time of this writing, massive wildland fires are burning in California and Oregon in the United States. The largest, the 680,000-plus-acre Dixie Fire, is burning in Butte, Plumas, Lassen, Tehama, and Shasta counties in Northern California. The Dixie Fire has become the second largest fire in California's recorded history. It has leveled the town of Greenville, population about 900
Examining Mehrtens’ (Counter)modernism in captivity
Argument What kind of mathematical research activities took place in prisoner of war camps in Germany during the Second World War? And can one inspect such activities in order to re-examine, on the one hand, Herbert Mehrtens’ analysis of the modernism/counter-modernism divide of early twentieth-century mathematics, and on the other, his research on the instrumentalization of mathematics during the war? Closely examining the work carried out in th…

Beyond the Cultural Competence Paradigm and contradictory tensions stemming from the multiple identities that constitute each person and community.It also demonstrated the ways in which structural conditions such as chronic poverty, language barriers, and vulnerability to immigration control are tied to gender, race, and class, categories that would later expand across other identities as the concept of intersectionality rapidly diffused across m…

Kuhn and Philosophy
Initially trained as a physicist, Kuhn became a leading and extraordinarily influential figure in the history of science. He saw his work in the history of science as contributing to a novel philosophical conception of the nature of science. At the outset of Structure , for example, Kuhn announces his intention to replace the “development-by-accumulation” model he associates with the philosophical tradition before him—including, in particular, wh…

The Role of Monetary Policy
There is wide agreement about the major goals of economic policy: high employment, stable prices, and rapid growth. There is less agreement that these goals are mutually compatible or, among those who regard them as incompatible, about the terms at which they can and should be substituted for one another. There is least agreement about the role that various instruments of policy can and should play in achieving the several goals

The Meaning and Status of Newton's Law of Inertia and the Nature of Gravitational Forces
A four dimensional approach to Newtonian physics is used to distinguish between a number of different structures for Newtonian space-time and a number of different formulations of Newtonian gravitational theory. This in turn makes possible an in-depth study of the meaning and status of Newton's Law of Inertia and a detailed comparison of the Newtonian and Einsteinian versions of the Law of Inertia and the Newtonian and Einsteinian treatments of g…

Replicability of rating the coronary-prone behaviour pattern
The possible involvement of a specific overt behaviour pattern in the pathogenesis of clinical coronary heart disease (CHD) has been under careful study.The characteristics of this overt behaviour pattern, called Behaviour Pattern A, have been described previously (Friedman and Rosenman, 1959).In brief, it is 6haracterized by extremes of competitiveness, striving for achievement, aggressiveness (yet sometimes stringently repressed), haste, impati…

Monetary Policy and Economic Growth
In this paper, we empirically examine the impact of key interest rate on national and sector economic growth. Using Tunisian quarterly data in the period 2000-2018, we estimate, in the first step, the long term relationships through VECM analysis and, in the second we enrich our study by introducing variables of interaction. We find that key interest rate significantly and positively influences national and sector economic growth and negatively a…
