Resumo(s)
The curricular movement known as Modern Mathematics aimed at the transformation of
representations and practices in school mathematics. Its study provides us with ways of understanding
how these changes came about. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of the
ways in which representations of school mathematics gradually were influenced by ideas from the Modern
Mathematics movement, how these new ideas merged into local educational traditions, and how they
were transformed into meaningful practice. This work is centred on the Portuguese context from the
middle 1950s to the middle 1960s, and builds on Chervel’s notion of school culture and Gruzinski’s
discussion of connected histories.
