Resumen
The paper briefly discusses the well-known paradox in Ethnomathematics (Millroy, 1992) and links this to issues of colonization and decontextualization of cultural knowledge that are engendered by the ethnomathematical practice. It then proposes a shift of ethnomathematical perspective by expounding on the window metaphor and develops the concept of mutual interrogation as an approach in the search for alternative conceptions of quantity, relations, and space that are associated with cultural practice. The paper ends by presenting some examples from the author’s research on the practice of rice terracing agriculture in the Cordillera region in northern Philippines.
