Abstract

This is a historical research study of the influence of feminism on nursing and nursing education from 1970 to 1994. Historical research contributes to the knowledge of the underpinnings of nursing education practices and the socialization process of nurses as a profession within the male, patriarchal system of medicine. This inquiry identifies select nurse-woman leaders and their contributions in incorporating a new value system for education and nursing based on feminist principles. The implications of this paradigm shift for nursing education, practice and research are discussed.
