Abstract

The article examines the peculiarities of the socio-economic life of the rural population of Uzbekistan during the Great Patriotic War. It analyzes the processes of restructuring agriculture to meet wartime demands, the mobilization of labor resources, the role of women, adolescents, and elderly people in ensuring the country’s food security, as well as the impact of the evacuation of population and industrial enterprises on the rural infrastructure of the republic. Special attention is paid to the moral and ethical aspects of life in Uzbek villages, manifestations of mutual assistance, labor heroism, and the preservation of traditional social institutions under wartime conditions. Based on historical materials, the contribution of the rural population of Uzbekistan to the Victory over fascism is revealed.
