between 1930 and 1985 in the Soviet Union, including the Mathematical Circles
for its particularly importance and influence on the rest of the Programs and
on the way of understanding the Mathematics Education; the objectives and the
organization of practical cases nowadays, legacy of the Russian Mathematical
