The paper discusses several appropriations of the categories of “pure” and “applied” science (mainly in chemistry) in early Francoism. At the height of a crusade that criminalized “pure” science as inherently attached to the culture of the Second Spanish Republic, the category of “pure” assumed spiritual, religious and anti-materialist values in the early education policies of the new regime, in the context of the newly founded national research centre, the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC). At the same time, relevant Francoist scientists stressed the high moral status of a new utilitarian, “applied” science, to efficiently serve the material needs of the country. As a result, the categories of “pure” and “applied” science, and their rhetorical use in public addresses and propaganda, became useful tools for building a strong alliance between science and power that cemented the dictatorship.

在早期佛朗哥主义中构建“纯”和“应用”科学

本文讨论了早期佛朗哥主义对“纯”和“应用”科学（主要是化学）类别的几种挪用。在将“纯”科学定为与西班牙第二共和国文化固有联系的十字军东征的高峰期，“纯”类别在新政权的早期教育政策中承担了精神、宗教和反物质主义价值观，在新成立的国家研究中心 Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) 的背景。与此同时，相关的佛朗哥派科学家强调了一种新的功利主义“应用”科学的崇高道德地位，以有效地服务于国家的物质需求。结果，“纯”和“应用”科学的类别，以及它们在公共演讲和宣传中的修辞使用，
