collectivization that took place in Uzbekistan and throughout Central Asia in the 1930s, based on

archival sources and scientific literature. The agrarian policy of the Soviet government, in

traditional forms of management, the confiscation of private property, the increase in taxes and

other mandatory payments, as well as the strengthening of Bolshevik administrative pressure,

caused mass protests among the local population
