   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethics_in_mathematics

   Ethics in mathematics is an emerging field of applied ethics, the inquiry into ethical aspects of the practice and applications of mathematics. It deals with the professional responsibilities of mathematicians whose work influences decisions with major consequences, such as in law, finance, the military, and environmental science . [ 1 ]

4. Ethical calculus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethical_calculus

   Generally, ethical calculus refers to any method of determining a course of action in a circumstance that is not explicitly evaluated in one's ethical code.. A formal philosophy of ethical calculus is a development in the study of ethics, combining elements of natural selection, self-organizing systems, emergence, and algorithm theory.

5. Ethnomathematics - Wikipedia

   In mathematics education, ethnomathematics is the study of the relationship between mathematics and culture. [1] Often associated with "cultures without written expression", [2] it may also be defined as "the mathematics which is practised among identifiable cultural groups". [3]

6. Ethics - Wikipedia

7. Felicific calculus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felicific_calculus

   Bentham, an ethical hedonist, believed the moral rightness or wrongness of an action to be a function of the amount of pleasure or pain that it produced. The felicific calculus could in principle, at least, determine the moral status of any considered act.

8. Mathematical sociology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_sociology

   The linkage of mathematics and sociology here involved abstract algebra, in particular, group theory. [12] This, in turn, led to a focus on a data-analytical version of homomorphic reduction of a complex social network (which along with many other techniques is presented in Wasserman and Faust 1994 [ 13 ] ).

9. Critical mathematics pedagogy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_mathematics_pedagogy

   Critical mathematics pedagogy is an approach to mathematics education that includes a practical and philosophical commitment to liberation. [1] Approaches that involve critical mathematics pedagogy give special attention to the social, political, cultural and economic contexts of oppression, as they can be understood through mathematics.
