About the Journal

Mathematics Education and Society (MES) was established in 1998 to satisfy the need for a wider discussion of the social and political dimensions of mathematics education, for disseminating theoretical frameworks, discussing methodological issues, sharing and discussing research, planning for action, and developing a strong research network. In addition, MES encourages classroom teachers to share their praxis.

The MES Conferences aim to bring together mathematics educators from around the world to provide such a forum as well as to offer a platform on which to build future collaborative activity. It is expected that topics discussed at MES Conferences will be wide-ranging. It is also expected that all issues will have clear and underpinning social themes. The general topics of the conference have been:

  • Politics of Mathematics Education,
  • Cultural and Social Aspects of learning Mathematics,
  • Sociology of Mathematics and Mathematics Education,
  • Alternative Research Methodologies in Mathematics Education, and 
  • Histories and Philosophies in Mathematics Education.
