Biography

James Franklin is an Honorary Professor at the University of New South Wales, with a focus on the philosophy of mathematics, extreme risk theory, ethics, and the history of ideas in Australian Catholic history. He has developed a realist alternative to Platonism and nominalism in mathematics through his works such as 'Aristotelian Realist Philosophy of Mathematics' and 'Worth Persons: Foundations of Ethics'. His research combines insights from mathematics with cultural humanistic scholarship and aims to understand the foundations of ethics from a rational perspective. Additionally, he has worked on the implications of combining small data sets with expert opinion to estimate the probability of rare events that could lead to significant negative consequences. Franklin has published extensively, including books and numerous articles, and has contributed to various educational and research initiatives.
