Abstract

In this article, the author attempted to analyze the policy of the Soviet state in the field of housing in the cities of Uzbekistan in 1920s-1930s of XX century. The author paid special attention to the search for forms of solving the housing policy by the Soviet government in the framework of overcoming the emerging housing crisis, including such measures as the construction of workers and socialist towns. At the same time, the Soviet government believed that the existing system of cooperative housing construction, the construction of workers and socialist towns, developed in most cases not a socialist way of life, but strengthened old individually-isolated forms of life. The construction of one or two apartment buildings in which each tenant had his own separate yard, fenced from the neighbor’s yard, was perceived by the Soviet government as absolute individualism in the complete absence of any elements of collectivism. Despite all efforts, the housing problem, together with the presence of workers and other departmental dormitories, which was perceived by the majority as temporary, forced housing, was not completely resolved until the collapse of the Soviet state.
