- More about Mathematics Education in a Neocolonial Country: The Case of Papua New Guinea
Education research primarily takes place in Western developed countries, with limited research from developing countries. This book is unique in that it covers education in Papua New Guinea over the millennia, providing an in-depth record and critique of how school mathematics has been grown. It will be a valuable addition to graduate programs in mathematics education, history of mathematics, cross-cultural studies, globalization, post/decolonialism, linguistics, educational administration, and policy.

Education research primarily takes place in Western developed countries, with limited representation from developing nations in academic journals. However, occasional research from developing countries does surface, often highlighting the scarcity of such studies. The proposed book stands out as a unique contribution, offering a comprehensive exploration of education in Papua New Guinea across millennia. Papua New Guinea's multicultural society, with its relatively recent contact with Europe and the Middle East, provides a fascinating glimpse into the development of education in a country with a colonial past and a smooth transition to independence. The discussion will center on specific areas of mathematics education that have been influenced by policies, research, circumstances, and other factors, with a particular focus on the pressures faced by education in the past one and a half centuries. This volume will serve as a valuable record and critique of the growth of school mathematics in Papua New Guinea since the late 1800s, making it an essential addition to graduate programs in mathematics education, history of mathematics, interdisciplinary fields such as cross-cultural studies, globalization and post/decolonialism, linguistics, educational administration and policy, technology education, teacher education, and gender studies.
