RISTESKI, Ice B.  e  GARCIA D., Carlos E.. ON WHAT THERE IS IN PHILOSOPHY OF MATHEMATICS. discus.filos [online]. 2008, vol.9, n.12, pp.151-172. ISSN 0124-6127.

In this paper, we sketch roughly several moments that have a considerable influence on the development of the philosophy of mathematics. We illustrate the main problems of this discipline and discuss the import of the so called 'positiviness of mathematics'. By examining several approaches to this problem, we analyze ontological and epistemological questions which can help to clarify this complicated area.

Palavras-chave : Philosophy of mathematics; logic; abstract mathematics; pure mathematics; application of mathematics.
