Renouvier emerged from youthful positivism and left-wing political activity to create a philosophy of science that challenged any political ideology that claimed the status of a science. At the same time, he revealed the political character of the sciences. Although Renouvier may have held some conservative ideas about mathematics and evolution, they were not due to his conventionalism, as this book shows.
