 Here we have mentioned some prominent representatives in brackets. All types of structuralism share a common conviction about the rôle of structures in their respective disciplines, but at first glance they show little similarity. Nevertheless, there are connections and mutual influences between the different structuralisms. It goes beyond the scope of this entry to examine these influences in more detail. For the relations between anthropologic and mathematical structuralism see Aubin (1997). As mentioned, we will understand ‘structuralism in physics’ as a special case of ‘structuralism in philosophy of science’. There are close connections with mathematical structuralism, which we will discuss in more detail in the main part of this entry. To illustrate these connections here we only mention the full title of Stegmüller (1979a): The structuralist view of theories, A possible analogue of the Bourbaki programme in physical science.
