Kronecker on the foundations of mathematics

Harold M. Edwards

pp. 45-52

Abstract

Today the phrase "foundations of mathematics" has become synonymous with "set theory and mathematical logic." The most important thing to understand about Kronecker's views on the foundations of mathematics is that set theory and mathematical logic had no part in them.
