Main Tendencies In The Transformation Of National Culture In The Era Of Globalization
The article examines the main tendencies in the transformation of national culture under the influence of globalization. It argues that globalization is not merely an economic or technological process, but also a complex socio-cultural phenomenon that changes everyday lifestyles, communication habits, value orientations and models of identity. The study pays particular attention to the tension between cultural standardization and the preservation of national uniqueness. On the one hand, global media, consumer culture and digital networks produce common behavioural patterns; on the other hand, national cultures continue to adapt, reinterpret and enrich global influences through local traditions, language, education and moral norms. The article concludes that the protection of national culture should not be understood as isolation from the world, but as a conscious strategy of cultural selectivity, spiritual resilience and responsible participation in global development
Conceptual Foundations For Developing Legal Consciousness And Legal Culture In Uzbekistan
The article examines the conceptual foundations for developing legal consciousness and legal culture in Uzbekistan within the logic of the human-centred reforms of New Uzbekistan. The research problem is that legal awareness cannot be reduced to the formal transmission of statutes; it must become a stable social habit through which citizens understand rights, respect obligations, participate in public life and evaluate state activity by the standard of legality. The study uses the works and speeches of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Constitution, presidential decrees and national laws as its documentary basis. Methodologically, the article applies normative-legal, axiological, institutional and modelling approaches. The results show that the national concept rests on six interconnected pillars: constitutional dignity, the rule of law, service-oriented public administration, continuous legal education, open access to legal information, and anti-corruption integrity. The discussion argues that these elements become effective only when they are connected by practice-oriented legal education, accessible digital communication, public participation in law-making and accountable implementation. The proposed socio-legal model interprets legal culture as a dynamic unity of knowledge, value, behaviour and institutional trust. The article concludes that Uzbekistan’s legal culture policy should move from episodic legal propaganda to measurable civic competence and everyday legality.

The findings indicate that inclusive education serves not only as an educational model but also as a social institution that promotes equal participation, social inclusion, and human development.

An Axiological Analysis Of The Relationship Between Gender-Based Violence And Human Dignity
The article offers an axiological analysis of the relationship between gender-based violence and human dignity. Its central thesis is that gender-based violence is not only a legal offence or a private conflict, but a value-destructive social practice: it transforms the person from an autonomous moral subject into an object of control, fear, humiliation, or dependency. The study relies on Uzbek and CIS scholarship in axiology, gender studies, legal studies, and social psychology, including the works of Q. Nazarov, D. B. Vafaeva, L. R. Shayusupova and I. R. Alizhonov, K. Aliyeva, G. A. Ishankhanova, M. A. Laktionova, S. E. Retsya and Z. V. Lukovtseva, and D. L. Faizova. The empirical and normative context is framed by Uzbekistan's 2019 laws on protection from harassment and violence and equal rights, the Gender Equality Strategy until 2030, and the 2023 amendments that introduced Article 126-1 on domestic violence. Using axiological-hermeneutic, comparative-legal, and qualitative synthesis methods, the article identifies four findings: dignity functions as the highest value criterion in evaluating violence; gender violence reproduces a hierarchy of unequal worth; local institutions such as the mahalla can either normalize harm or become channels of dignity-centered protection; and effective prevention requires harmonizing legal liability with value education, survivor-centered services, and transformation of gender stereotypes. The article concludes that a society that places inson qadri, human worth, at the center of reform must treat gender-based violence as a direct violation of the moral foundations of social life
From Jadidism To New Uzbekistan: Historical And Philosophical Stages Of Social Consciousness Transformation
This article examines the historical and philosophical stages of social consciousness transformation in Uzbekistan from the Jadid reform movement of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to the contemporary New Uzbekistan development strategy.

Employing historical-philosophical, comparative, hermeneutic, and systemic research methods, the article identifies the principal factors that shaped changes in collective consciousness across different historical periods. The findings demonstrate that Jadidism laid the intellectual foundation for modern national consciousness, while the independence era and the New Uzbekistan reforms introduced new paradigms of civic responsibility, social participation, and humancentered development. The research proposes a conceptual model of social consciousness transformation based on continuity, modernization, and value-based renewal. The article contributes to contemporary discussions regarding social development, national identity, and philosophical modernization in Uzbekistan

Cognitive And Cultural Dimensions Of Urban Micro toponyms: A Cross-Cultural Analysis Of Tashkent And London
This study offers a comparative analysis of the microtoponymic systems of Tashkent and London within cognitive linguistics and linguocultural frameworks. It investigates how urban place names function as cognitive and cultural markers encoding collective memory, social identity, and spatial perception. The corpus includes 150 microtoponyms from central and peripheral districts of both cities. Using semantic classification, etymological analysis, and cognitive mapping, the study categorizes naming motivations and examines underlying conceptual structures. Findings show that Tashkent’s microtoponyms reflect ideological dynamism, multilingual layering, and shifting national identity, while London’s demonstrate historical stability and continuity tied to trade and heritage. Both systems share universal cognitive mechanisms such as anthropocentric naming and metaphorical representation. The study concludes that microtoponyms serve as cognitive maps linking language, culture, and urban space, contributing to urban semiotics and onomastics.
