This article analyzes the international mechanisms for preserving and protecting cultural diversity in the context of globalization and accelerating integration processes. At the same time, it highlights the normative-legal and conceptual role of conventions and declarations adopted by international organizations such as the UN, UNESCO, and the International Labour Organization (ILO) in ensuring cultural rights. Furthermore, taking the experience of the European Union as an example, the importance of cultural diversity as a factor in socio-political and sustainable development is substantiated from a cultural studies perspective.

This article analyzes the multilayered, integrative methodology for scientifically researching the modern threats affecting the cultural thinking of young people in Uzbekistan. The urgency of the problem lies in the fact that the factors influencing young people’s consciousness simultaneously manifest through values, information, language, art, faith, communication, and the institutional environment; therefore, studying this phenomenon within the framework of a single discipline or a single method does not yield sufficient results. The article systematically presents axiological, cultural studies, semiotic, artistic-aesthetic, psychological, sociological, media- analytical, linguo-culturological, religious-educational, and institutional approaches, showing that each opens up a separate layer of analysis.

This article examines the issues of comprehensive study of the scholarly and literary heritage of Doctor of Philology and Professor Hamidjon Homidiy. The research focuses on the major areas of his activity, including Ferdowsi studies and Shahnameh studies, textual criticism and source studies, Avesta studies, Sufism and tazkira traditions, translation studies, pedagogy, and literary- publicistic works. Based on conference proceedings and scholarly studies devoted to the scholar, the article argues that Homidiy’s multifaceted heritage constitutes an integrated scholarly and aesthetic system rather than a collection of separate fields. The study identifies перспективные directions for further research into his legacy, his role in establishing a scholarly school, and the necessity of collecting, classifying, and publishing his works in a multi-volume edition.

This article analyzes the interplay between historicity and modernity in mass celebrations from a cultural studies perspective, using the Namangan International Flower Festival as a case study. The study examines the interconnections among historical memory, national tradition, aesthetic expression, tourist experience, and digital communication. The cultural content of the festival is analyzed in relation to local flower-growing practices, urban memory, folk festivities, and the modern festival industry. As a result, a coherent model for integrating historical and cultural heritage into contemporary forms of mass communication is substantiated.

The article systematizes the factors shaping young people’s media behavior, the relationship between critical thinking and information hygiene, and technologies for analyzing media influence. The relevance of the problem lies in the fact that young people consume a large share of information through messengers and social networks in algorithmically curated environments, which amplifies the effects of false and manipulative content. The study applies theoretical-analytical methods to national and international scholarly sources, legal documents, and a reinterpretation of published media-consumption survey results from Uzbekistan. As a result, (1) the cognitive, social, and technological determinants of youth media behavior are identified; (2) a working definition and five principles of information hygiene are proposed; (3) a five-group classification of media-influence analysis technologies is presented; and (4) an integrative model based on a “diagnosis - intervention - monitoring” cycle, together with a system of indicators, is developed. The model is conceptual and requires empirical validation.

This article analyzes, from a scientific-psychological perspective, the negative emotional states that may arise among higher education faculty members during the use of artificial intelligence (AI) - specifically, generative AI tools. Based on an integrative literature review and conceptual analysis, the study synthesizes scholarly sources published between 2007 and 2026 regarding technostress, AI anxiety, teacher well-being, professional identity, digital competence, and the adoption of generative AI. The analysis identifies seven primary forms of negative emotional responses to AI among higher education educators: technological anxiety, lack of confidence in competence, apprehension regarding professional roles and the future, concerns about ethical responsibility, cognitive-emotional strain, frustration, and emotional exhaustion. We interpret these states not as isolated incidents, but as a systemic process shaped by the interplay of technological demands, individual resources, and institutional support.
