This thesis analyzes the philosophical foundations of national customs and values in Uzbekistan. It explores how Uzbekistan’s cultural and philosophical heritage, including Islamic teachings, Zoroastrian traditions, and Central Asian philosophy, has shaped its national values and social norms. The paper examines the significance of traditional values such as hospitality, family ethics, social responsibility, and solidarity in everyday life and how they are evolving in the context of modern society. The article also discusses the challenges of preserving national identity while adapting to the forces of globalization. The role of Uzbekistan’s philosophical traditions in shaping its society’s history, religious framework, and cultural context is critically evaluated.
