THE INFLUENCE OF AMIR TEMUR’S POLICY ON THE LIFE AND STATEHOOD OF THE BUKHARA KHANS

Oltinoy Masalievna Masalieva ,

Abstract

This article explores the influence of the statehood traditions established by Sahibkiran Amir Temur on the socio-political life of the later Bukhara Khanates (the Shaybanids, Ashtarkhanids, and Manghits). The author analyzes the centralized management system and military-administrative reforms formed during the era of Temur and the Temurids, as well as the significance of the "Institutes of Temur" as a legal foundation. The study highlights that the rulers of Bukhara relied on the Temurid legacy to legitimize their power and adopted the Sahibkiran model as an exemplar of governance. Furthermore, the article covers issues of continuity in architecture, culture, and economic relations. A comparative analysis is conducted on the extent to which the strategic management methods of the Temurid period were reflected in the domestic and foreign policies of the Bukhara khans. In conclusion, it is substantiated with evidence that Amir Temur’s policy not only created a new school of statehood in Central Asia but also served as the foundation of the region's administrative culture for centuries. The article is intended for historians and a wide range of readers interested in the history of statehood.
