Abstract:
The first half of the twentieth century was a period of significant political and social
change for the Turkic-Muslim peoples. After the revolutionary changes, Turkic Muslim peoples
were able to maintain their identity despite the new Bolshevik colonial policy of the Russian
Empire. As a result, national autonomies started to be established, which led to a process of
integration of Turkic Muslim peoples. Their ideological views were influenced by the Jadids,
who were educated in the madrasas of Bukhara, Samarkand, Kazan, Istanbul, and Cairo.
During their stay in Istanbul they came into contact with the Young Turks and were influenced
by new ideas, which became the basis of cooperation of Turkic peoples at the stage of creation of
national autonomies. Thus in the given article the aim of complex analysis of Turkic peoples’
cooperation within the framework of national autonomies in the first half of XX century (ItilUral, Alash Orda, Turkestan, Shuro-i-Islamia) on the basis of the archival data of the Russian Federation and the Central State Archive of the Republic of Uzbekistan is set. In order to reach this goal by means of discourse-analysis method and historical-comparative research method the author tries to shed light on the historical process of Turkic-Muslim peoples integration in Russian Empire.
