INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT IN UZBEKISTAN DURING INDEPENDENCE
Keywords:
- Industry - the leading sector of the economy, which has a decisive impact on the level of development of the productive forces of societyAbstract
It is known that during the previous regime, the republic's economy developed unilaterally, focused only on the production of raw materials, and the rise of cotton monopoly had negative consequences.
Uzbekistan, with its backward industrial and social infrastructure, had the lowest per capita consumption in the former Soviet Union. It should be noted that 95% of cotton was exported without processing. In general, despite the abundance of agricultural products, processing industries and enterprises are underdeveloped.
The disproportion in the structure of production in Uzbekistan was the result of forced specialization from above. After the independence of Uzbekistan, radical reforms were carried out in industry, industrial enterprises in many sectors were denationalized and privatized, transformed into state, corporate, public, private and other forms of ownership.
