INTRODUCTION Hilbert's Program.

In 1925 and 1927, in his papers "On the Infinite"

[1) and "The Foundations of Mathematics" [2), Hilbert gave a comprehensive

presentation of his ideas regarding the foundations of mathematics.

Here

he started from the point of view that for logical inference (and thus science in general) to be rel
