Ethnomathematics in Scenes: in the southern borders of an america, what mathematics are we capable of?

Abstract

This article proposes to think about ethnomathematics in its functioning, territorialization, demands for institutionalization and apliancement. Faced with this challenge, this writing assumes itself as a composition, or a bricolage, of five scenes that mark moments and events highlighted with ethnomathematics. The bricolage of these scenes sometimes problematizes the interiority of ethnomathematics, sometimes challenges and exercises its limits and boundaries as an area, as a practice, as a producer of knowledge, etc., in an exercise-invitation to multiply reading access, composing texts with these and other scenes. brought to the composition through the reading, also multiplying access to ethnomathematics, practicing borders and boundaries.
