Short description of the workshop: aims and underlying ideas This workshop addresses mathematics education in one of the most closed countries in the world — North Korea, as an extreme example of political influences on mathematics education. North Korean secondary school mathematics education is examined through the review of North Korea’s social and educational structures as well as its political and ideological position. In-depth interviews were conducted with defectors, who are now in South Korea, former secondary school mathematics teachers and students, to understand their real life experiences in school mathematics in North Korea. Workers’ Party’s influence on mathematics education and the impact the March of Suffering are examined. There are two main focuses of this workshop.
