Coverage Of Uzbekistan’s Foreign Policy Issues In Domestic And Foreign Scientific Literature

This article analyzes the coverage of Uzbekistan's foreign policy in domestic and foreign scholarly literature. The study examines how the conceptual foundations, strategic priorities, institutional mechanisms, and regional-global dimensions of Uzbekistan's foreign policy are interpreted by Uzbek and international scholars. Particular attention is given to the transformation of Uzbekistan's foreign policy since independence, the role of national interests, the principles of openness and pragmatism, and the country's active participation in regional and international cooperation. The article also compares domestic scholarly approaches with foreign research, revealing similarities and differences in the interpretation of Uzbekistan's diplomatic strategy, regional policy, security priorities, and multilateral initiatives. While domestic literature primarily emphasizes state sovereignty, national development, good-neighborliness, and regional stability, foreign research often focuses on geopolitical balance, Central Asian regionalism, great power rivalry, and Uzbekistan's role in international organizations. By systematizing existing research approaches and identifying areas requiring further scholarly inquiry, the article contributes to a deeper academic understanding of Uzbekistan's foreign policy.
