This contribution deals with inequalities: an important subject from the mathematical point of view, scarcely considered till now by researchers in mathematics education. Our working hypothesis is that different tools belonging to different disciplines (cognitive sciences, didactics of mathematics, epistemology of mathematics) related to mathematics education are needed to interpret difficulties met by students and plan and analyse teaching experiments intended to cast new light on this subject. Data coming from some teaching experiments conceived in this perspective will be used to support our working hypothesis.

Abstract
This contribution deals with inequalities: an important subject from the mathematical point of view, scarcely considered till now by researchers in mathematics education. Our working hypothesis is that different tools belonging to different disciplines (cognitive sciences, didactics of mathematics, epistemology of mathematics) related to mathematics education are needed to interpret difficulties met by students and plan and analyse teaching experiments intended to cast new light on this subject. Data coming from some teaching experiments conceived in this perspective will be used to support our working hypothesis.
