Care Theory Compare and Contrast Paper Pamela Morales HCS 350 July 11, 2011 Care Theory Compare and Contrast Paper Jean Watson’s Theory of human caring is based on transpersonal relationships and developing a caring environment that offers the development potential while allowing the person to choose the best course of action. Through interactions with others we learn how to recognize ourselves in others. Watson believes that through these interactions humanity is preserved. John Paley’s article A Slave Morality: Nietzchean themes in nursing ethics criticizes Watson’s theory that caring is central to nursing. The purpose of this paper is to compare and contrast John Paley’s article to Jean Watson’s Commentary on Shattle M (2004)†¦show more content†¦The slaves’ leaders (the priests) initiate the revolt creating new values and attacking the ruling class as evil. The slave class as the nobles, aspires to strength and power, but has no prospect on achieving either. The will to power, the desire to obtain power, is the most important concept to bette r explain the human behavior. Eternal recurrence or eternal return means that the universe has been recurring and will continue to recur in a cyclical way (Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 2009).

Essentially all values of the medical model become non-moral, the opposite of these values become the paradigm of the â€Å"caring paradigm†: the absence of science, the absence of focus and â€Å"caring† or the absence of clinical detachment. As with Nietzsche’s slaves these feeling of revenge are fuelled by the wish to obtain power; however the political balance remains unchanged (Paley, 2002). Paley believes that the nursing â€Å"revolt† that took place mainlyShow MoreRelatedWhy Should A Health Information Professional Possess A Fundamental Understanding Of The Law?1432 Words   |  6 Pagesparties to the lawsuit are forever barred from bringing a subsequent action raising the same claim or demand.
