Abstract
This article examines the interaction between digital culture and historical traditions in Uzbekistan, focusing on how the processes of digitalization affect the perception, transmission, and transformation of national heritage. The study relies on the methods of digital anthropology, cultural studies, and communication theory to analyze the dual nature of the digital revolution: as a challenge to authenticity and as an opportunity for cultural revitalization. The findings demonstrate that digital platforms are not only reshaping modes of cultural expression but also becoming crucial in preserving and reinterpreting Uzbekistan’s historical memory. The digital environmentsimultaneously produces both risks of cultural simplification and new models of creative synthesis between traditional and modern values.
