Description

The causes of conflicts that occur in different countries of the world are often indicated by the human instinct of tribalism. The article is devoted to the study, analysis and search for ways to solve the problems of ethnopolitical tribalism.

The main features of a tribal society are tribal strife, hostility towards other sub-ethnic groups. The ethno-political tribalism that often forms in such a society is one of the most dangerous phenomena, since the representatives of the dominant tribe who have seized power use the power of power to suppress competing tribes. As a result, instead of forming a national identity and civil society, social inequality, corruption, and tribal hatred begin to grow in the country. Often this is accompanied by bloody civil conflicts within the country.

Central Asia, encompassing the former USSR countries Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan and Kazakhstan, is a typical region with ethnopolitical tribalism. In each of them there were cases of bloody suppression of protests, and in some there was a civil war. As a rule, they have regional economic inequality, when regions become colonies of the central region. In most of them, the rulers rule for decades.

The article examines the ongoing attempts to regulate tribalism in these countries, which in reality turn into political tools to combat dissent.

The article considers the search for ways to solve the problem of ethnopolitical tribalism.

In essence, such a search comes down to finding ways to build a democratic state based on equality, fair elections, the formation of a civil society and the elimination of the risks of seizing power by one of the tribes (ethnic groups, sub-ethnos).
