Abstract

This article analyzes the substance, key directions, and practical significance of the legal reforms implemented in Uzbekistan in recent years. It examines the revised Constitution, the Development Strategy of New Uzbekistan for 2022–2026, and the Uzbekistan – 2030 Strategy as the principal legal foundations for consolidating the rule of law, safeguarding human rights and freedoms, reforming the judicial and legal system, and enhancing the quality of legislation. The article also addresses improvements in the law-making process, the systematization of normative legal acts, the strengthening of anti-corruption mechanisms, and the development of open, transparent, and effective public administration through the digitalization of public services. The reforms discussed are assessed as an interconnected, mutually reinforcing process of legal modernization.
