Abstract

This article analyses historiography relating to education during Primo de Rivera’s dictatorship, with special attention given to works that consider the notion of the school system as a nationalizing instrument throughout those years. Following this bibliographical itinerary, the paper examines the questions of major interest, as well as the perspectives from which these problems have been tackled, up to the current decade, when new trends have appeared that emphasize the nationalization of the school system while turning away from more traditional approaches.
