This survey on the modernity of ethnomathematics addresses numerous
themes related to both ethnomathematics and mathematics education.
It offers a broader view of mathematics, including ideas,
procedures, concepts, processes, methods, and practices rooted in
distinct cultural environments. In addition, by reflecting on the
social and political dimensions of ethnomathematics, another
important aspect of this research program is the development of
innovative approaches for a dynamic and glocalized society.
Ethnomathematics recognizes that members of different cultures
develop unique mathematical techniques, methods, and explanations
that allow for an alternative understanding and transformation of
societal norms. The theoretical basis of ethnomathematics offers a
valid alternative to traditional studies of history, philosophy,
cognition, and pedagogical aspects of mathematics. The current
agenda for ethnomathematics is to continue an ongoing, progressive
trajectory that contributes to the achievement of social justice,
peace, and dignity for all. The debates outlined in this book share
a few of the key ideas that provide for a clearer understanding of
the field of ethnomathematics and its current state of the art by
discussing its pedagogical actions, its contributions for teacher
education, and its role in mathematics education.
