Abstract
This essay focuses on the connections between calculation and bureaucracy and points out implications for mathematics education. A genealogic analysis which methodologically follows Nietzsche and Foucault is used to show these connections firstly on a historical and secondly on the level of styles of thought. In the process, Weber’s theory of bureaucratic administration, Sybille Krämer’s history of formalisation and Foucault’s analysis of the modern episteme will be considered. This study shows that mathematics – even in its unapplied and theoretical form – and bureaucracy share a common style of thought. Consequently, school mathematics can be understood as an institution which trains and examines a bureaucratic style of thought – an understanding supported by Paul Dowling’s sociology of mathematics education.
