DURING THE INITIAL PHASE OF THE ATTACK MOVEMENT, THERE WERE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND POLITICAL CONDITIONS IN THE REPUBLIC

Abstract

The "attack" movement, which began in the second half of the 20th century, aimed to liberate Uzbek women and girls from oppression and darkness, symbolized by the forced veiling. In the context of Turkestan's conditions, this socially and politically complex issue was implemented by the ruling party without considering local customs and traditions, without any consultation or voting. This resulted in many negative consequences in the country's life. The pre-attack period was neither prosperous nor satisfactory. This study focuses on the social and political situation in the country during the "attack" movement, which took place in Central Asian countries.
