  • Regulating Academic Pressure: From Fast to Slow

    Open Access•Karen François, Kathleen Coessens et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Philosophy of Education•2020•References: 1

    This paper investigates the impact of publication pressure on the ethics and the scientific integrity in the domain of mathematics and of the arts. Both research fields are specific in their methodology, being that they do not start from a classical hypothesis and researchers in these areas are not knowing what the outcome will be. The research design is open, and creativity is a main part of the research investigation. Both research fields do no…

  • Reassembling mathematical practices: A philosophical-anthropological approach

    Open Access•Karen François, Éric Vandendriessche•ARTICLE•Revista Latinoamericana de…•2016

    In this paper we first explore how Wittgenstein’s philosophy provides a conceptual tools to discuss the possibility of the simultaneous existence of culturally different mathematical practices. We will argue that Wittgenstein’s later work will be a fruitful framework to serve as a philosophical background to investigate ethnomathematics (Wittgenstein 1973). We will give an overview of Wittgenstein’s later work which is referred to by many researc…

  • The Interplay of Psychology and Mathematics Education: From the Attraction of Psychology to the Discovery of the Social

    Open Access•Karen François, Kathleen Coessens et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Philosophy of Education•2012•References: 5

    It is a rather safe statement to claim that the social dimensions of the scientific process are accepted in a fair share of studies in the philosophy of science. It is a somewhat safe statement to claim that the social dimensions are now seen as an essential element in the understanding of what human cognition is and how it functions. But it would be a rather unsafe statement to claim that the social is fully accepted in the philosophy of mathema…

  • The Thing Called Environment: What It Is and How to Be Concerned With It

    Open Access•Gert Goeminne, Karen François•ARTICLE•Oxford Literary Review•2010•Cited by: 8•References: 2

    This paper wants to think beyond the science-politics divide that is omnipresent in sustainability discourse. With Bruno Latour, we investigate if and how decomposing matters of fact and recomposing them back as matters of concern can open up a scientific-political space in which sustainability challenges can be addressed in an adequate manner. By connecting Latour's constructivist account of science in action with Rudolf Boehm's concept of topic…
