Kurt Gödel Society

The Kurt Gödel Society was founded in 1987 and is chartered in Vienna. It is an international organization for the promotion of research in the areas of Logic, Philosophy, History of Mathematics, above all in connection with the biography of Kurt Gödel, and in other areas to which Gödel made contributions, especially mathematics, physics, theology, philosophy and Leibniz studies. On June 29, 2015 Professor Dana Scott was elected President of the KGS. In cooperation with the Institut Wiener Kreis we will organize a series of events in a Viennese coffeehouse under the title Cafehaus-Wissenschaft - Der Wiener Kreis Logic, Medicine, Jurisprudence and Philosophy: four sciences which were prominent in Vienna at the beginning of the 20th century. We will present these four disciplines with interesting, funny, strange and famous results. There will be lectures to each of these sciences and two special courses are held on the incompleteness theorem of Gödel and on Kelsens jurisdiction. Collegium Logicum is the publication series of the Kurt Gödel Society. It is a continuation of the Annals of the Kurt Gödel Society. The Collegium Logicum contains publications in Logic, Philosophy, and the History of Mathematics.
