Abstract

This article examines the domestic education that began to spread in the United States, Canada and Europe, with innovative claims, since the late 19th century. The text discusses also its introduction in Spanish state education by a Canalejas’ government through the  Escuela del Hogar y Profesional de la Mujer, after some private initiatives, and the expressive controversy caused by this school in conservative and Catholic sectors. The characteristics of the school, its evolution  in  the  dictatorship  and  in  the  republican  period,  as  well  as  an  outline  of  its  results, are also aspects considered in these pages.
