CROSS-CULTURAL INTEGRATION IN ESL TEACHING THROUGH LITERATURE: ASPECTS AND STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONS
The increasing diversity of English as a Second Language (ESL) classrooms necessitates the integration of cross-cultural content into language instruction. Literature, as a culturally rich and linguistically diverse medium, offers significant potential to develop both language competence and intercultural communicative competence (ICC). This thesis investigates how literature can be systematically employed to facilitate cross-cultural integration in ESL contexts. Drawing upon theoretical models from intercultural communication, applied linguistics, and literary pedagogy, the study proposes a framework for effective implementation, identifies key aspects of cross-cultural engagement through literature, and outlines pedagogical strategies suitable for diverse learner populations. The findings support the use of multicultural literature as an essential component in fostering intercultural understanding and linguistic proficiency.
INTERNATIONAL LEGAL REGULATION OF NEW SYNTHETIC DRUGS
This article explores the international legal mechanisms designed to regulate the production, distribution, and consumption of new synthetic drugs (NSDs), also known as new psychoactive substances (NPS). NSDs present unique regulatory challenges due to their rapid proliferation, structural variability, and evasion of traditional drug control laws. The article analyzes the role of key international treaties such as the 1961 Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances, and the 1988 UN Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances. Additionally, it critically evaluates the functioning of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the International Narcotics Control Board (INCB), and the World Health Organization (WHO) in addressing the NSD crisis. Case studies from the European Union, the United States, and Central Asia, particularly Uzbekistan, are included to demonstrate the impact of national implementation and the gaps in legal harmonization. Recommendations for treaty reform, enhanced data-sharing, and a flexible legal approach to synthetic drug regulation are presented.

РОЛЬ И ЗНАЧЕНИЕ ИИ В СИСТЕМЕ ЭЛЕКТРОННОГО ПРАВИТЕЛЬСТВА
Искусственный интеллект (ИИ) играет ключевую роль в трансформации систем электронного правительства, обеспечивая повышение эффективности, доступности и прозрачности государственных услуг. ИИ используется для автоматизации процессов, анализа больших объемов данных, персонализации взаимодействия с гражданами и прогнозирования общественных потребностей. Технологии машинного обучения и обработки естественного языка позволяют создавать интеллектуальные чат-боты, оптимизировать документооборот и улучшать системы принятия решений. Применение ИИ способствует снижению бюрократических барьеров, повышению качества обслуживания и укреплению доверия граждан к государственным институтам. Однако внедрение ИИ сопряжено с вызовами, включая вопросы этики, защиты данных и обеспечения равного доступа к технологиям. Таким образом, ИИ становится неотъемлемой частью электронного правительства, определяя его будущее развитие и эффективность.

ZERO TRUST ARCHITECTURES IN TELECOM CORE NETWORKS
The core of modern telecommunication networks has evolved into a complex, distributed, and software-defined environment. This evolution introduces new security challenges that traditional perimeter-based models can no longer effectively address. Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), which assumes no implicit trust within or outside the network perimeter, offers a promising approach for securing telecom infrastructures. This paper investigates the implementation of ZTA principles in the core of 5G and next-generation telecommunication networks. We propose an architecture that integrates identity-aware access control, continuous verification, micro-segmentation, and policy enforcement into network functions. A testbed was created to evaluate the performance and security benefits of ZTA under realistic telecom conditions. Results show that ZTA significantly improves threat detection and isolation while maintaining acceptable levels of performance.

BANK SOHASIDA MOLIYAVIY BO‘LMAGAN XAVFLAR: RISKLARNI BOSHQARISH TIZIMINING KENG QAMROVLI TAHLILI
So‘nggi yillarda bank sohasida yuzaga keladigan xavflarning faqat moliyaviy yo‘nalishdagilari emas, balki moliyaviy bo‘lmagan xavflar (non-financial risks) ham muhim ahamiyat kasb eta boshladi.

Xususan, 2023-yilda xalqaro bank sohasida yuzaga kelgan kiberxavfsizlik hujumlari soni 35% ga oshgani, shu bilan birga, qoidabuzarlik va operatsion xatoliklar tufayli banklarga tushgan zararlarning umumiy hajmi 20 milliard dollardan oshgani ushbu xavflarning dolzarbligini yana bir bor tasdiqlaydi (Kaspersky Lab, 2024; Accenture, 2023).
