| Sumario: | The article focuses on the role of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) in shaping scientific discourse during Franco's regime in Spain from 1939 to 1966. It highlights how CSIC publications benefited from state support, including unrestricted access to resources and exemption from censorship, which facilitated the growth of scientific research aligned with the regime's ideological goals. The author examines the dynamics within the CSIC, particularly in applied sciences, revealing contradictions in the impact of research on industry and the global scientific community. Additionally, the article addresses the gender disparities in the scientific field, noting the limited participation and influence of women during this period. Overall, the work contributes to understanding the complex interplay between science, politics, and society in Francoist Spain.
