THE FORMATION OF HISTORIOGRAPHY IN UZBEKISTAN AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 20TH CENTURY
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article explores the intellectual and institutional emergence of historiography in Uzbekistan during the early 20th century—a period marked by political transformations, cultural renaissance, and national awakening. The formation of modern historical thought was influenced by the intersection of traditional Islamic scholarship, Jadidism, colonial Russian academic policies, and early Soviet ideological paradigms. Through the analysis of historical texts, educational reforms, and the activities of prominent historians, this study reveals the complexities of how Uzbek historiography was conceptualized, constructed, and contested in the transition from imperial to Soviet rule. The article further evaluates the historiographical legacy of this period and its influence on subsequent national history writing in Uzbekistan.
