description From Pierre Bourdieu's sociological theory and the research in Mathematical Education, it is presented in this article an interpretation of mathematics as a field: with its laws, agents, capitals, disputes, tastes and distinctions. Our goal was to design the field of mathematics, from the analysis of a professional mathematics Master's Program in national network (Profmat). This program was conceived and implemented by the Sociedade Brasileira de Matemática ( Brazilian Mathematics Society) and by Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada( Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics), institutions recognized as developing high-level research in mathematics, but not recognized in the context of research in teacher training. The sociological investigation carried out by elaborating the notion of field, allowed an understanding of Profmat as a strategy for valuing a mathematical practice and an understanding of mathematics as a hierarchical space of agents in dispute for the right to define what is mathematics and who has enough distinction to define it.

A partir de la teoría sociológica de Pierre Bourdieu y de las investigaciones en Educación Matemática presentamos, en este trabajo, una interpretación de la Matemática como campo: con sus leyes, agentes, capitales, disputas, gustos y distinciones. Nuestro objetivo fue delinear el campo de la matemática, partiendo del análisis de un Programa de maestría profesional en matemática en red nacional (Profmat). Este programa fue realizado e implantado por la Sociedad Brasilera de Matemática y por el Instituto de Matemática Pura y Aplicada, instituciones que, reconocidas por desarrollar investigación de alto nivel en matemática, no son reconocidas en el ámbito de las investigaciones en formación de profesores. La investigación sociológica, realizada mediante la elaboración de la noción de campo, permitió una comprensión del Profmat como una estrategia de valoración de una práctica Matemática y una comprensión de la Matemática en cuanto a un espacio jerarquizado de agentes en disputa por el derecho de definir lo que es matemática y quien tiene distinción suficiente para definirla. A partir da teoria sociológica de Pierre Bourdieu e das pesquisas em Educação Matemática apresentamos, nesse artigo, uma interpretação da Matemática enquanto campo: com suas leis, agentes, capitais, disputas, gostos e distinções. Nosso objetivo foi desenhar o campo da matemática, a partir da análise de um Programa de mestrado profissional em matemática em rede nacional (Profmat). Esse programa foi idealizado e implantado pela Sociedade Brasileira de Matemática e pelo Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada, instituições que, reconhecidas por desenvolver pesquisa de alto nível em matemática, não são reconhecidas no âmbito das pesquisas em formação de professores.
