Abstract
This chapter articulates the role of nursing practice within the framework of emancipatory nursing praxis. It focuses on the theory of Relational Caring Complexity. The theory emphasizes socioeconomic-political, communitarian, spiritual, and ethical caring in the world of nursing in complex healthcare organizations. The chapter uses the concepts of relational caring complexity as a guide for nursing leadership decision making. It helps the caring-healing nurse to identify the core values of social justice, human rights, relational caring complexity, and create praxis projects within their own system. The chapter explicates the feminist philosophy of peace and power, and the processes of social justice and human rights using the history of the Theory of Bureaucratic Caring, Complexity Sciences, and the Theory of Relational-Caring Complexity.
