Turkic Republics on the 30th Anniversary of Their Indepence and TURKSOY

Year 2022, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 123 - 147, 30.05.2022

Abstract

Three decades ago, the Turkic states of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan,
and Turkmenistan gained their independence as a result of the dissolution of the USSR.
Official contacts began to be established soon after the independence and this process
was followed by the institutionalization of the relations. As an organization founded during
this institutionalization period, the International Organization of Turkic Culture (TURKSOY)
contributed to the nation-state building process of the Turkic states with its activities covering
many areas. The main purpose of the article is to highlight the contributions of TURKSOY to
the cultural cooperation within the Turkic World through the activities it performed during
this thirty years period of independence.
