Mathematics education can promote democratic competences and values, but
also inhibit them, and create inequalities. A basic idea behind the promotion of
democratic competences and attitudes is proposed by Vithal (1999): within a
mathematics classroom where it is possible for students to experience
democratic life students can learn to listen to others’ ideas, argue, take
decisions, and critically analyse arguments made by authorities, e.g., the
teacher. Aguilar and Zavaleta (2012) found three facets of mathematics
education linked to democracy: a provider of critical mathematical skills, a
source of values and attitudes, and a social gatekeeper. In this paper I discuss
how mathematics teachers through innovative practices can foster a
democratic competence in their students.
