Özet

Uzbekistan had a new Constitution, and a series of laws were enacted

after the proclamation of independence in 1991. The functioning of the

new state in a democratic way was organized according to these laws. In

this study, it was investigated whether the laws enacted had influence on

women’s participation and representation in politics along with democracy,

and if so, in what ways they were applied. As the method of the study,

a descriptive design with semi-structured interviews and document

analyses was applied to obtain data for the triangulation of a mixedmethod

approach. The current situation and dynamics regarding women’s

participation and representation in politics were explored by analysing

original governmental documents related to Uzbek Constitution and

by conducting semi-structured interviews with 9 Uzbek citizens. As the

results exhibited, it was seen that women in Uzbekistan were represented

in the politics as mentioned in the laws. However, as the data analysis

indicated the so-called representation and participation of women in

Uzbekistan remained on the surface level. Depending on the reported

results, it could be stated that the presentation and participation were

limited and not efficient and actively implemented in the real-life context.
