Abstract
The article examines the main aspects of the influence of the historical and near-historical policies of the states of post-Soviet Asia on the domestic political life in these sovereign republics. This influence is multifaceted and the theme of memory policy as an integral part of the country’s ideological policy on the part of the official authorities of the countries of the region is in a complex interaction with the use of complex issues of the country’s recent history by various opinion leaders and population groups outside the structures of public administration. Due to the desire of the authorities of the Central Asian countries, civil activists, media (primarily online), NGO structures, historians and publicists to disguise political, opportunistic interest in using historical topics to solve various domestic political problems, many aspects of the process that can be called “memory wars” are hidden from scientific research. The present text is also an attempt to consider the degree of influence of historical politics on the formation of new ideological foundations for the existence of political systems in the republics of the Central Asian region.
