This article presents a discussion about the historical context in which the teaching of mathematics has been used as a form of abstraction capacity and reflection, a function previously exercised by the humanist educational system, with the teaching of Greek and Latin. The 17th century was marked by the Industrial Revolution, which contributed to the accelerated growth of cities, modifying the leader's profile. With this movement, the humanist teaching scroll fell in decline, boosting the search for a discipline that could replace the formation given by the teaching of Greek and Latin, something that would enable the formation of logical reasoning, as well as the formation of leaders and the school selectivity (Gramsci, 2001). In this view, opted itself, in this study, by the methodology exploratory whose data collection gave itself by documentary analysis, on the basis of a theoretical-bibliographic study. The results indicate that the conceptions of abstraction and reflection are currently related to the application of mathematics to reality, distant from the technique of thinking indicated by Gramsci, further to the formation of leaders to be linked more to market conceptions than the real intellectual and moral elevation of the citizen.
