You believe in a society where traditional values are upheld, national unity is prioritized, and social stability is maintained through strong, centralized leadership.
Sociological Francoism is a political ideology that emerged from the regime of Francisco Franco, who ruled Spain from 1939 to 1975. This ideology is not specific to Spain, but it is named after Franco due to its origins and the significant influence his regime had on its development. It is a complex ideology that combines elements of nationalism, conservatism, and authoritarianism, with a strong emphasis on traditional values, social order, and unity.
Franco's regime was characterized by a strong central government, strict control over the economy, and a suppression of political…

Have you ever felt pride in your country's past and how does it shape your view on its future?
I guess not so much because our country has failed us numerous of times.
@9JGR5HBProgressive1yr1Y
No, this country was built on the blood of others.
@9JGR7JG1yr1Y
Under President Biden, Jared Bernstein serves as Chair and Heather Boushey and Kirabo Jackson serve as Members of the CEA.
@9JGRK281yr1Y
I feel pride in our country's growth from the past to the present and for the growth moving onto the future
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Can you think of a situation where strict government control could seem appealing to maintain order?
@9HY8MKB1yr1Y
Natural disasters and times of war or terrorist attacks
@9HYTDM81yr1Y
The role of a properly-constituted government is to protect the rights of its citizens. In certain circumstances, this may involve increased attention to detail in policing, limitations on the privileges afforded to citizens, and even the temporary suspension of common activities such as trade. However, a government loses its legitimacy (and its right to enforce law, by proxy) when it begins to transgress against the rights of its citizens.
@9HYKMGL1yr1Y
Strict government control could increase efficiency, and potentially be more coordinated then many separate bodies trying to provide aid.
@9HY8ZP71yr1Y
During a war, I could see how Sociological Francoism could be appealing to those who are hoping that their country can quickly go back to how it was before the war, but that usually is never possible. Conserving some of those old values might be what put that country in the current war it is fighting, so maybe they need to start over in some ways.
@9HY8MBQ1yr1Y
It could be effective if crime gets to an all time high and the people do not follow social codes anymore.
For a time like now, the country is heavily divided, possibly on the verge of a Civil War. The government would need to step in to solve or mend the issues we are seeing.
@9HYGV9T1yr1Y
We are not on the "verge of a Civil War". The country is divided but that is not an issue that the government needs more involvment.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What role do you believe the family unit should play in modern society compared to its traditional role?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How much do you value individualism versus the collective good in your daily life?
@9HTMKND1yr1Y
I value the type of individualism that says that everyone has the right to do anything as long as no damage is done to anyone else. But individualism should not be purely selfish, though it can act as protecting one's interest.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Should personal freedoms be sacrificed for the sake of maintaining traditional values and social order?
@9HM5J631yr1Y
Depends on the traditional values and freedoms in question. If it gets in the way of making strong healthy families, and the base tiers of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to be fulfilled by the majority of the population, then yes.
No, traditions are good but you also have to realize we aren't in the past
@9H8RGYQ 1yr1Y
In a case where the "social order" or "traditional values" are detrimental to a group of people, it should be overturned and replaced with personal freedoms.
@ISIDEWITH12mos12MO
What personal sacrifice would you be willing to make for the perceived good of your nation?
@ISIDEWITH12mos12MO
How would you define freedom in a society that emphasizes order and tradition?
@9L2CS8612mos12MO
Freedom in our society is considered a right we have the right to freedom but it is given to us and as soon as we don't follow these laws we will lose the right.
@9L2CWRDLibertarian12mos12MO
Making everyone have the same traditions and stuff would be terrible. That’s what I’m getting out of this anyway.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
In what ways has the idea of a 'strong leader' influenced your opinion on how a country should be run?
@9HXZZ9Y1yr1Y
A strong leader should be head stronger but also have integrity and honesty to gain trust from their people.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When have you had to choose between fitting in and being true to your values, and what did you learn from that decision?
@9HV368R1yr1Y
My grandparents expected me to be fluent in my parents native language. As a child it was a lot to take in all the languages and became confusing. I learned to be true to myself and give myself the time to learn what I could from each of my parents languages and background even if I was not the expert of each.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Is there a tradition in your life that you’d fight to preserve? If so, what is it?
@9JDDFKW1yr1Y
The consistent points in Franco's ideology (termed Francoism) included authoritarianism, nationalism, national Catholicism, militarism, conservatism, anti-communism, and anti-liberalism.
@9JDDVBBRepublican1yr1Y
Having thanks giving or going to church on christmas day.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Is there a place in modern society for strong nationalistic feelings, and how do they affect international relations?
@9J7LS2C1yr1Y
Strong nationalism, when given too much power, severely impacts foreign relations in a negative way, as some strong nationalists promote their interests for their own country, even if it impacts others. However, nationalism to a certain degree is not necessarily harmful, and citizens should be allowed to support and advocate for their country. It only becomes an issue when it is a detriment to other countries.
@9J7LS5YRepublican1yr1Y
There is and I believe you should be all in for your country and if you are not, you can move somewhere else.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you balance the importance of national unity with the value of individual and regional differences?
@9H65NGD1yr1Y
Politics should be more separate from. Religion as Religion is too leaned towards beliefs of a small group and less towards the wants and needs of the whole people
@9H65JXP1yr1Y
"Sociological Francoism" is a term I learned about through this website, and I find it a bit ridiculous that it's listed under ideologies here. It's Spanish fascism and there doesn't seem to be need to demarcate it differently in the English language section of this website. Spanish language section? Sure, it makes perfect sense. English language section - do you really expect anyone to recognize this?
Nevertheless, my uninformed American self will make an attempt to answer. Spain is in the EU. The end-goal of the European Union is a federal Europe; most Euroskeptic… Read more

To what extent do you think uniform education affects creativity and critical thinking among youth?
@9HXZVY21yr1Y
In regards to uniform education, I really don’t believe it has an affect on creativity and critical thinking.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Do you think it is fair for certain historical narratives to be given more attention than others in shaping a national identity?
@9HPMDHYLibertarian1yr1Y
I think some historical events are glossed over, such as the Japanese in WWII committing horrific crimes like in Unit 731 and that the nukes were justified given more evidence coming out like the US air force weeks prior dropping thousands of leaflet warnings in Japanese to the civilians to evacuate.
@ISIDEWITH12mos12MO
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How much does the desire for a stable society influence the choices you make?
@9KLTTGR12mos12MO
I think my choices are impacted by a desire for a society that is Sensible, Peaceful, and Christian.
@ISIDEWITH11mos11MO
@ISIDEWITH12mos12MO
If you could enhance one aspect of your cultural identity, what would it be and why?
@9L2PT2312mos12MO
I would want to learn more about where I come from so that I can properly understand my heritage
@ISIDEWITH11mos11MO
In what instances have you chosen the greater good over your personal beliefs?
@9LDQ4DF11mos11MO
When I do something good for the store I work at that negatively affects me.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What aspects of your culture do you feel are important to uphold, and which are you comfortable seeing change?
@9JDTBLV1yr1Y
Build our economy up, create more safety, give everyone equal opportunity not based on status or money.
@ISIDEWITH11mos11MO
When has your personal culture or beliefs come into conflict with mainstream societal norms, and how did you navigate that?
@9L68JX311mos11MO
I'm a member of the car community and it happens every time the EPA does anything so I just do everything I can to make sure they lose every battle until we win the war.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When has your personal growth been influenced by either conforming to or challenging societal norms?
@9KHFN7L12mos12MO
I have grown in ways that make me more confident in what I believe
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What social or cultural sacrifices would you accept for the sake of national security?
@9JDBZ391yr1Y
Francoism in Spanish politics caused a lot of hurt for Spanish citizens, and a good country is founded on balance. Sacrificing some personal freedom for the safety of the country is okay, but all personal freedom is not.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Have you ever found comfort in adhering to a tradition—why or why not?
@9JG3LM91yr1Y
despite being otherwise uncommon phrases in modern English. We can look to the Founder's choice of definitions for treason for a little guidance, but ultimately the definition is going to come down to legal interpretation in any given case.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How does the concept of 'unity over diversity' resonate with you in today's globalized world?
@9K9RVR91yr1Y
It is important for us as a human race entirely to come together to tackle global and environmental issues
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Have you ever noticed a fear of change in your community and how do you think that impacts progress?
@9J72RXQIndependent1yr1Y
I feel that most people always fear change because it is unknown. For example, when COVID-19 hit, many people in my town, and everywhere else in the world, grew worried and panicked. Many rushed to buy goods in the fear that there would be a shortage and many worried for loved ones and tried to get everybody vaccinated.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
To what extent is it acceptable for a government to control economic and social systems to prevent chaos and disorder?
@9H7BQTJ1yr1Y
yes i think the gov should step in if necessary but not have total control
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
In what ways do you think upholding conservative social values benefits or harms a society?
@9H64L3D1yr1Y
1 believe that it would greatly change society if conservation social values were upholder
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Is it more important for a society to maintain its historical customs, or to embrace change and modernity?
@9H5SS9HIndependent1yr1Y
definitely embrace change and modernity . the work is constantly changing by each generation that comes through reinstating different values and beliefs and ideas .
@ISIDEWITH11mos11MO
How do you perceive the role of cultural norms in shaping individual behavior and freedom of choice?
@9L6MT8GRepublican11mos11MO
Should not be pressed onto people of the younger generations
@ISIDEWITH12mos12MO
How do you perceive the role of a centralized authority in guiding societal values and ethics?
@9L37L6K12mos12MO
No singular person should lead societal values and ethics, and while each ideology can have something to take away from it, a centralized authority could be incredibly harmful
