Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyse the theoretical grounds upon which the Doctrinal Corpus of Nursing is based through modern theoretical postulates of Science Philosophy. It also aims to show the emergence of a post-modern reality that allows one to determine and criticise or better to say "debate" the social position of the nurse, and justify at the same time the need for the existence of scientific nurses. Thus, the overall aim is to reflect on the numerous current theoretical tendencies in Nursing, as well as to assess future theoretical possibilities in the field of nursing.
