SOCIO-POLITICAL SITUATION OF UZBEKISTAN IN THE CONTEXT OF ECOLOGICAL GLOBALIZATION

Uzbekistan, a landlocked Central Asian country, has been navigating complex socio-political changes over the past few decades, especially since gaining independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. This paper aims to analyze Uzbekistan’s socio-political landscape in the context of ecological globalization, focusing on how environmental issues, global ecological shifts, and international climate policies have impacted the country's political and social dynamics. As Uzbekistan continues its economic reforms and seeks closer integration with global markets, the interplay between its internal development and the broader ecological crisis presents both challenges and opportunities. The analysis will examine policy shifts, environmental movements, and socio-political adjustments made by the government to address climate change, sustainability, and environmental health. In conclusion, this paper offers insights into the complexities of ecological globalization in Uzbekistan, proposing a framework for future socio-political adaptation.
