This article examines the presence of East Slavic peoples in the territory of Turkestan during the first half of the 20th century and analyzes their interactions with the local population. It explores the distinct social, political, and economic influences of Slavic communities, their role in transforming Turkestani society, as well as the roots of integration, migration, and tensions with the indigenous peoples. The study highlights how, under the Russian Empire and later the Soviet Union, the East Slavic peoples developed strong connections with neighboring regions, and their cultural integration, economic participation, and political influence left a significant impact on the socio-economic structure of Turkestan. Particular attention is given to the processes of Slavicization, mutual integration, and interethnic conflicts.
