NATION-BUILDING IN TAJIKISTAN
Abstract
The statehood of the Tajiks is rooted in hoary antiquity. It stems from the very specific local states (Bactria, Sogdiana and Khorezm) with the state-political tradition of their own. Its principles and values were reflected and further developed in the state of the Akhamenids. The society, its civiliation and ideas about state administration survived under the pressure of Islam the influence of which upon society was huge. Active and complex interaction between the old and new institutions and values created a much more mature and integral social model of the state of the Samanids (875-999). It was at that time that the political culture of the Tajiks became characterized by such element as legal foundation and strengthening of the statehood. It was based on a very high level of social ties, dynamic and multi-functional urban culture and developed trade infrastructure.
