El aprendizaje de la matemática es una necesidad sentida y percibida por las poblaciones indígenas, como se advierte en los testimonios que recogen los autores de esta obra. Esto se debe a que la ciencia y la tecnología son el núcleo y el motor de la actual sociedad del conocimiento. Aprender matemática es, ante todo, adquirir poder para defenderse de la exclusión y autoafirmarse. ¿Cómo podemos adoptar decisiones inteligentes en nuestra vida diaria o influir en la política nacional e internacional sin una adecuada educación científico-tecnológica? De lo que se trata, en definitiva, es de responder a las preguntas: ¿es posible que los amerindios se apropien de la matemática e incluso contribuyan a su desarrollo sin renunciar a sus culturas específicas? y ¿es posible ser a la vez matemático y amerindio auténticos sin tener que adoptar, necesariamente, la cultura denominada del “progreso universal”?. Éste es el tema desarrollado en el presente libro, fruto de una iniciativa surgida hace varios años con el fin de efectuar un balance de la situación educativa de los pueblos indígenas, elaborar nuevos enfoques conceptuales y diseñar respuestas pedagógicas adecuadas a sus necesidades y expectativas. Para lograrlo se ha implicado a los propios sujetos de los programas educativos desarrollados en las áreas indígenas y zonas populares de América Latina, contando con la participación de investigadores y especialistas en la materia. En la obra, coordinada por Alfonso E. LIZARZABURU y Gustavo ZAPATA SOTO, han colaborado los siguientes autores: Ubiratan D’AMBROSIO, André CAUTY, Kleber GESTEIRA E MATOS, Gustavo GOTTRET, Terezinha NUNES, Adán PARI RODRÍGUEZ, Ruperto R. ROMERO, Joachim SCHROEDER, Isabel SOTO CORNEJO y Martha VILLAVICENCIO UBILLÚS.

Research within a socio-political paradigm or “turn” has been gradually recognized and institutionalized as an important part of mathematics education. This book focuses on the neglected problems, tensions and contradictions evoked by this process. The authors do this by challenging current regimes of truth about mathematics education; by identifying how recent technological developments challenge or suspend contemporary conceptions of mathematics education; by critiquing the ideological entanglement of mathematics, its education and schooling with capitalism; by self-reflective analyses of researchers' impacts on shaping what is and can be perceived as the practice of mathematics education (research); and by confronting main-stream mathematics education with socio-political contexts that are usually neglected. In this way, "mathematical rationality" becomes contextualized within contemporary society, where it reproduces itself through technologies, social practices, media and other spheres of social life.

Learning takes place both inside and outside of the classroom, embedded in local practices, traditions and interactions. But whereas the importance of social practice is increasingly recognised in literacy education, Numeracy as Social Practice: Global and Local Perspectives is the first book to fully explore these principles in the context of numeracy. The book brings together a wide range of accounts and studies from around the world to build a picture of the challenges and benefits of seeing numeracy as social practice ̶ that is, as mathematical activities embedded in the social, cultural, historical and political contexts in which these activities take place. Drawing on workplace, community and classroom contexts, Numeracy as Social Practice shows how everyday numeracy practices can be used in formal and non-formal maths teaching and how, in turn, classroom teaching can help to validate and strengthen local numeracy practices. At a time when an increasingly transnational approach is taken to education policy making, this book will appeal to development practitioners and researchers, and adult education, mathematics and numeracy teachers, researchers and policy makers around the world.

La problemática asociada al aprendizaje y la enseñanza de las matemáticas va cambiando según evoluciona la sociedad en la que se da este proceso. Sin lugar a dudas la globalización y los problemas con ella asociadas ocupan un lugar preponderante en las dinámicas de nuestra sociedad. Nuestra sociedad ha dejado de ser un grupo homogéneo de personas con referencias culturales uniformes y se ha convertido en pocas décadas en una sociedad multicultural. La enseñanza de las matemáticas no puede dejar de constatar esta situación y parece que deberá pasar de una concepción cultural única a una visión más poliédrica de la relación, siempre interesante, entre la enseñanza de las matemáticas y el medio social en el que se da.

Numbers are an important feature of almost all known cultures. In this detailed anthropological study, Thomas Crump examines how people from a wide range of diverse cultures, and from different historical backgrounds, use and understand numbers. By looking at the logical, psychological and linguistic implications, he analyses how numbers operate within different contexts. The author goes on to consider the relationship of numbers to specific themes, such as ethnoscience, politics, measurement, time, money, music, games and architecture. The Anthropology of Numbers is an original contribution to scholarship, written in a clear and accessible style. It will be of interest to anthropologists who study cognition, symbolism, primitive thought and classification, and to those in adjacent disciplines of psychology, cognitive science and mathematical social science.

Bestselling author and astrophysicist Mario Livio examines the lives and theories of history’s greatest mathematicians to ask how—if mathematics is an abstract construction of the human mind—it can so perfectly explain the physical world. Nobel Laureate Eugene Wigner once wondered about “the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics” in the formulation of the laws of nature. Is God a Mathematician? investigates why mathematics is as powerful as it is. From ancient times to the present, scientists and philosophers have marveled at how such a seemingly abstract discipline could so perfectly explain the natural world. More than that—mathematics has often made predictions, for example, about subatomic particles or cosmic phenomena that were unknown at the time, but later were proven to be true. Is mathematics ultimately invented or discovered? If, as Einstein insisted, mathematics is “a product of human thought that is independent of experience,” how can it so accurately describe and even predict the world around us? Physicist and author Mario Livio brilliantly explores mathematical ideas from Pythagoras to the present day as he shows us how intriguing questions and ingenious answers have led to ever deeper insights into our world. This fascinating book will interest anyone curious about the human mind, the scientific world, and the relationship between them.

Mixed race studies is one of the fastest growing, as well as one of the most important and controversial areas in the field of race and ethnic relations. Bringing together pioneering and controversial scholarship from both the social and the biological sciences, as well as the humanities, this reader charts the evolution of debates on 'race' and 'mixed race' from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century. The book is divided into three main sections: tracing the origins: miscegenation, moral degeneracy and genetics mapping contemporary and foundational discourses: 'mixed race', identities politics, and celebration debating definitions: multiraciality, census categories and critiques. This collection adds a new dimension to the growing body of literature on the topic and provides a comprehensive history of the origins and directions of 'mixed race' research as an intellectual movement. For students of anthropology, race and ethnicity, it is an invaluable resource for examining the complexities and paradoxes of 'racial' thinking across space, time and disciplines.

Arguing that ethnicity and multiculturalism are essential for understanding globalization, this book offers sustained treatments of their reach beyond a limited national context. It proposes ethnicities and global multiculture as alternative, wide-angle perspectives on cultural diversity.
