HOFFMANN, Yohana Taise  and  COSTA, David Antonio da. Circulation of ideas on History of mathematics education events. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.67, pp.2004-2026.  Epub Dec 31, 2020. ISSN 1981-416X.  https://doi.org/10.7213/1981-416x.20.067.ao06.

We consider the History of mathematics education (Hme) as a scientific field which has as constitutive elements, research groups, scientific productions (e.g. thesis and dissertations), school and university subjects that contribute to the autonomy and stability of the field itself and scientific communications, such as specialised events and journals. Pierre Bourdieu’s sociology of education is mobilised as the theoretical framework, mainly on his definition of field concept. In this sense, this paper aims to present the circulation of ideas on a sociohistorical point of view through scientific events and journals on Hme field. We present the International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME) and then the International Journal on the History of Mathematics Education (IJHME), that circulated between years 2006 and 2016. Based on the mobilisation of the international community of researchers investigating Hme, the International Conference on the History of Mathematics Education (ICHME) was launched, shortly thereafter the Congresso Ibero-Americano de História da Educação Matemática (CIHEM) and, in Brazil, the Encontro Nacional de Pesquisa em História da Educação Matemática (ENAPHEM). Among all journals that currently contribute to the circulation of ideas, we list Revista UNIÓN, entitled Historia Social de la Educación Matemática en Iberoamérica and the Revista HISTEMAT, entitled Revista de História da Educação Matemática. The spaces that Hme has been occupying contribute to the process of recognition, legitimation, socialisation and circulation of ideas from the field itself.
