for example, Cauchy was a reactionary whereas Galois was a radical.[3] He opines that the most influential research mathematicians do not give much thought to politics.[4]Notable mathematician-politicians[edit]This is a list of people who at some points in their lives achieved notability both as academically-trained mathematicians (with a graduate degree, or published in mathematical journals) and also as elected politicians (at a state or national level).Tadatoshi Akiba (born 1942), member of parliament and mayor of Hiroshima in JapanKazimierz Bartel (1882\u20131941), prime minister and senator in PolandMuhammad Baydoun (1952\u20132022), member of parliament and government minister in LebanonVaclav Benda (1946\u20131999), senator in the Czech RepublicAlberto Beneduce (1877\u20131944), member of the Italian Reformist Socialist Party and minister of labour and social securityBoris Berezovsky (1946\u20132013), member of the security council and parliament of RussiaDaniel Biss (born 1977), member of the Illinois Senate and mayor of Evanston, Illinois in the United States\u00c9mile Borel (1871\u20131956), member of parliament and government minister in FranceFrancesco Brioschi (1824\u20131897), member of parliament in ItalyRudranath Capildeo (1920\u20131970), member of parliament in Trinidad and TobagoLazare Carnot (1753\u20131823), member of parliament and government in FranceAhmed Chalabi (1944\u20132015), member of parliament and government in IraqMarquis de Condorcet (1743\u20131794), member of parliament in FranceLuigi Cremona (1830\u20131903), senator and government minister in ItalyUlisse Dini (1845\u20131918), member of parliament in |ItalyCharles Dupin (1784\u20131873), government minister and senator in FranceSergio Fajardo (born 1956), department governor in ColombiaUte Finckh-Kr\u00e4mer (born 1956), member of parliament in GermanyTaj Haider (born 1942), senator in PakistanNadia Hashem, Minister of State for Women’s Affairs (2012)Daniel Hershkowitz (born 1953), member of the Knesset and government minister in IsraelReinhard H\u00f6ppner (1948\u20132014), minister-president of Saxony-Anhalt in GermanyEri Jabotinsky (1910\u20131969), member of the Knesset in IsraelHermine Agavni Kalustyan (1914\u20131989), member of parliament in TurkeyAlexander Lubotzky (born 1956), member of the Knesset in IsraelJerry McNerney (born 1951), congressman in the United StatesMichael Meister (born 1961), member of parliament in GermanyLuigi Federico Menabrea (1809\u20131896), Prime Minister of ItalyKeith Mitchell (born 1946), Prime Minister of GrenadaGaspard Monge (1746\u20131818), government minister in FranceMohammad-Ali Najafi (born 1952), minister of education in Iran and Mayor of TehranPaul Painlev\u00e9 (1863\u20131933), Prime Minister of FranceWalter Romberg (1928\u20132014), minister in East Germany’s only democratically elected governmentGeorge Saitoti (1945\u20132012), Vice-President of KenyaBlagovest Sendov (1932\u20132020), Chairman of the National Assembly of BulgariaFrank Terpe (born 1929), minister in East Germany’s only democratically elected governmentFaustin-Archange Touad\u00e9ra (born 1957), Prime Minister and President of the Central African RepublicC\u00e9dric Villani (born 1973), deputy in FranceReferences[edit]  "},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki21\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki21\/list-of-mathematician-politicians-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"List of mathematician-politicians – Wikipedia"}}]}]
