This article analyzes the formation and development of economic relations among the Soviet republics of Central Asia under the conditions of a centralized national economic system in the 1950s-1970s. The study examines inter-republican industrial and energy cooperation, the exchange of material and technical resources, and the main directions of the territorial division of labor on the basis of historical and statistical sources. The role of the Uzbek SSR within the regional economic system and its integration into the Union economy is examined. The findings show that while inter-republican relations accelerated industrial growth, in the long term they constrained the economic independence of the Central Asian republics.
