Abstract: Abstract Present research aims to analyze the Central Asian republics’ citizenship laws in texts and their receptivity of international human rights norms amid the collapse of the USSR. While analyzing rules and practices which govern citizenship policies in each of the states, the research also focuses on such sensitive elements as language laws and ethnicity in order to find out about existing legal and social distinctions between “insiders” and “outsiders” or in other words, examine the inclusive and exclusive components of the citizenship laws. The scope of the present paper is geographically and objectively limited to the Central Asian republics. It provides a legal comparison and analysis to inquire whether citizenship and language solutions comply with applicable rules of international law and detect their practical value.
