AIM and SCOPE
=============

The PhML 2012 is a sequel in the series of conferences
"Philosophy, Mathematics, Linguistics: Aspects of Interaction"
intended to provide a forum for presentation of current
researches, and to stimulate a dialogue between mathematicians,
logicians, philosophers, linguists and computer scientists who
share an interest in cross-disciplinary research. The conference
will have plenary sessions to present the latest researches. In
addition to plenary sessions, the conference will feature a panel
discussion entitled "The Heritage of Kant and Contemporary Formal
Logic". Apart from plenary sessions, there will also be parallel
sessions of thematic sections to present contributed papers.

The PhML 2012 will be held on May 22$BK(J5, 2012, at the Euler
International Mathematical Institute (EIMI), which is a part of
the St. Petersburg Department of Steklov Mathematical Institute
(PDMI).
