This Element provides an introduction to the position of mathematical pluralism that it is the view that there is an irreducible plurality of pure mathematical structures, each with their own internal logics; and that qua pure mathematical structures they are all equally legitimate.

Mathematical pluralism is the view that there is an irreducible plurality of pure mathematical structures, each with their own internal logics; and that qua pure mathematical structures they are all equally legitimate. Mathematical pluralism is a relatively new position on the philosophical landscape. This Element provides an introduction to the position.

1. From the foundations of Mathematics to Mathematical pluralism; 2. An examination of Mathematical pluralism; 3. Applied Mathematics; 4. Matters of logic.
