Abstract

In this study we analyzed the relationship between ideology and educational policy in nursing studies during the Franco regime in Spain. Using Gadamer´s analysis of the Contents of compulsory subjects such as Professional Morality and Religion, this study showed the crucial influence of the Catholic Church in teaching. Also, we initiated and developed a discussion, unexplored until then, on Contents and Recipients, which led us to conclude that nursing studies during the Franco regime were defined to be “aimless”. A change in the terminology from Nurse to Registered Nurse set aside other educational objectives related to the development of scientific and critical thinking skills. This implies a social redefinition in teaching.
