WHAT CAN UZBEKISTAN LEARN FROM CHINESE SMART COURTS?

The worldwide need for judicial modernization drives courts to improve their operational efficiency and transparency and accessibility  standards. China leads the world with its groundbreaking "smart courts" initiative which stands as one of the most  extensive judicial digitalization projects worldwide. China launched a fast-paced implementation of artificial intelligence and big data analytics  and blockchain technologies for judicial system transformation starting in 2016. Developing nations such as Uzbekistan can  learn important lessons from China's smart court development because the country has implemented major judicial reforms since President  Shavkat Mirziyoyev took office in 2016. This thesis investigates China's smart  court system while evaluating Uzbekistan's judicial framework and reform path to determine which technological solutions and implementation methods  Uzbekistan could implement while considering its distinct political and legal and social environment
