Introduction -- 2. Survey of the Social and Political Dimensions of Mathematics Education -- 3. Summary and Looking Ahead. 330 $aThis book examines the current thinking on five critical social and political areas in mathematics education. It focuses on material conditions in teaching and learning, and details features of social life and their influence on mathematics teaching, learning and achievement. Following an introduction, the first section addresses equitable access and participation in quality mathematics education. It explores this issue in different contexts and from different ideological perspectives. The second section traces the emergence and development of the notion of activism in mathematics education in theory, in the literature, in research and in practice. The third section then moves on to explore current research on the political forces at work in identity, subjectivity and (dis)ability within mathematics education, showing how emphasis on language and discourse provides information for this research, and how new directions are being pursued to address the diverse material conditions that shape learning experiences in mathematics education. Economic factors behind mathematics achievement form the topic of section four, which examines the political dimensions of mathematics education through the influence of national and global economic structures. The final section addresses distribution of power and cultural regimes of truth, based on the premise that although often deemed apolitical, mathematics and mathematics education are highly political institutions in our society. The book concludes with a summary and recommendations for the future. 410 0$aICME-13 Topical Surveys,$x2366-5947 606 $aMathematics 606 $aMathematics Education$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/O25000 606 $aSociology of Education$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/O29000 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/O19000 615 0$aMathematics. 615 14$aMathematics Education. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 676 $a370 700 $aJurdak$b Murad$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0904528 702 $aVithal$b Renuka$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $ade Freitas$b Elizabeth$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aGates$b Peter$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aKollosche$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910164342103321 996 $aSocial and Political Dimensions of Mathematics Education$92022531 997 $aUNINA
