ABSTRACT
This article discusses ensuring the integrity of legal education and upbringing in enhancing legal awareness and legal
culture in society. An important aspect of the decree is that the existing shortcomings in this area are listed one by
one. As noted in the document, we can not say that today the population has a comprehensive approach to the work
of instilling respect for the law and the rules of ethics, intolerance of crime. Insufficient efforts to inculcate the idea of
maintaining a balance between personal and public interests have a negative impact on the rule of law.

INTRODUCTION
One of the important conditions for building a
democratic state governed by the rule of law and civil
society in Uzbekistan is the creation of a system of
practical guarantees to ensure the basic rights and
freedoms of the individual and the protection of
human rights. The building of a democratic state based
on the rule of law and the development of society
depend on the level of education and legal literacy of
the younger generation. A necessary condition for
building a state governed by the rule of law and civil
society is the unconditional observance of laws.
Uniform and unconditional implementation of the law
depends on the attitude of our lawyers to their duties
and a sense of responsibility [6.34].

Today, reforms are being carried out in the country to
build a democratic state based on the rule of law and
civil society. Ensuring the rule of law, which is one of
the most important features of a democratic state
based on the rule of law, and educating a harmoniously
developed generation with a high level of legal
awareness and culture are at the heart of these
reforms.
THE MAIN FINDINGS AND RESULTS
In order for the good work being done in the Republic
of Uzbekistan in the interests of young people to
result, to have a high level of spirituality and
enlightenment from the younger generation, so that
our great ancestors and future generations can
faithfully fulfill their duties to their ancestors, a high
sense of responsibility is required, such as a sense of
belonging to history and, of course, the fulfillment of a
constitutional duty. To do this, of course, they need to
develop concepts such as legal consciousness and legal
culture. I think that through the correct and systematic
organization of teaching legal sciences, we will achieve
the desired results.
Raising legal awareness and legal culture in society is
one of the most important conditions for ensuring the
rule of law and strengthening the rule of law.
In recent years, significant work has been done to
radically reform the national legal system, to form a
legal culture in society and to train qualified legal
personnel.
Every member of society must be aware of his rights
and duties and responsibilities, and understand this as
a vital need. The fact that the worldview of our citizens
changes in accordance with the life of the country,
innovations is closely linked with the concept of legal
culture. President Sh. Mirziyoyev commented on the
essence of the ongoing democratic reforms in the
country in the book “Strategy of New Uzbekistan”: “In
recent years, as a result of gradual socio-political
reforms that have covered all aspects of life in our
society, the consciousness of our people, along with
changes in their worldview, the work methods and
activities of management and officials have also
acquired a new quality and modern content [7.82],
emphasizes that.
Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan
№ PF-5618 “On radical improvement of the system of
raising legal awareness and legal culture in society”
adopted on January 9, 2019 became an important
document defining the important tasks ahead in this
direction.
An important aspect of the decree is that the existing
shortcomings in this area are listed one by one. As
noted in the document, we can not say that today the
population has a comprehensive approach to the work
of instilling respect for the law and the rules of ethics,
intolerance of crime. Insufficient efforts to inculcate
the idea of maintaining a balance between personal
and public interests have a negative impact on the rule
of law. Recently, in various regions of the country,
there have been occasional articles on the global
information network about cases of discrimination
against citizens by officials. The main reason for this is
the lack of legal knowledge among citizens [5].
In addition, the work on legal education and
upbringing of young people in raising the legal culture
is not carried out systematically and systematically. For
many years, this issue has been viewed as the work of
law
enforcement
agencies
and
educational
institutions, with insufficient participation of family,
community and civil society institutions. Frankly,
advocacy activities are often limited to ineffective
seminars, roundtables and similar meetings, and it is

clear that innovative methods are not used enough in
the advocacy process. This has a negative impact on
the development of our society. There is no
comprehensive approach to the formation of legal
immunity against the factors that negatively affect the
legal education of young people, respect for the law
and morality, loyalty to national values, intolerance of
crime. The level of legal awareness and legal culture is
determined not by the number of laws passed, but by
the full implementation of these laws. In this important
work, it is especially important to instill in people a
sense of respect for laws and regulations.
Based on these criteria, the decree states in the minds
of citizens that “the establishment of a spirit of respect
for the law in society is the key to building a democratic
state governed by the rule of law!” to strengthen the
idea of life, it is emphasized that one of the primary
tasks is to form a system of consistent communication
of the content of the ongoing socio-economic reforms,
adopted legislation and state programs in the country.
Based on this, on June 22, 2020, the National Human
Rights Strategy was adopted. The purpose of the
strategy is to define the main tasks and directions of
the implementation of the state policy on ensuring
human rights and freedoms in Uzbekistan. Priorities of
the national strategy –
Protection of personal and political rights,
Protection of economic, social and cultural rights
and sustainable development,
Improving implementation and monitoring
mechanisms,
Improving legal literacy in the field of human
rights,
Development of international cooperation in the
field of human rights protection.
At the same time, the development of legal awareness
and legal culture in society is organized systematically
and organically on the principle of “person - family -
community - educational institution - organization –
society”. Indeed, nothing can equal the importance of
legal education in inculcating the foundations of law,
the essence of the Constitution and laws, new legal
documents, legal norms in the minds and hearts of
people, especially young people.
In particular, we need to form and develop a legal
culture in society, radically improve the promotion of
legal education and knowledge in our country, the
delivery of adopted regulations to the executors,
support targeted measures aimed at raising public
awareness of the purpose and content of the adopted
laws. After all, only a citizen who is free, knows his
rights and obligations, respects the law and applicable
regulations, can fully exercise his/her rights.
I think it is worth mentioning a comment here. Today,
the issue of developing our laws in a language that is
understandable to ordinary people is also relevant. It is
advisable to prepare draft laws in Uzbek and then
translate them into Russian. In practice, a number of
draft laws have been drafted in Russian and then
translated into Uzbek, leaving some sentences vague
and incomprehensible.
In addition, it would be appropriate if the names of the
websites that deliver the legislation to the population
are expressed in Uzbek, in short. For example, the
current name of the portal for discussion of draft
normative legal acts of the Republic of Uzbekistan -
www.regulation.gov.uz - is probably understandable
for professionals, intellectuals, but it is difficult to say
that it is memorable for ordinary citizens. Given that
the majority of the population of Uzbekistan speaks
Uzbek, we believe that if such public interactive portals
are called in Uzbek, they will be understandable to

everyone. In particular, it would be useful to name in
Uzbek the name of the legal information system
(Advice.uz), which includes a portal for free
consultations to the population, established in
accordance with the concept of raising legal culture in
society. In this regard, my opinion - the name of the
portal of collective appeals (www.meningfikrim.uz) is
an example of its widespread popularity among the
general population, especially among young people.
Therefore, the names of Uzbek-language websites do
not need to be in English. In other words, the
information provided on these sites on legal issues, the
fact that most people read the explanations is to some
extent related to this factor.
CONCLUSION
In short, the timely implementation of important
directions and tasks to raise legal awareness and legal
culture in the society, defined in the decree, requires
responsibility and dedication from us, lawyers and
intellectuals. As the head of our state noted, “the rule
of law and the interests of the people are the key to the
development of the country and the well-being of the
people”.
