This article gives an analysis of the Soviet constitutions adopted in the TASSR - the Uzbek SSR during the 1918-1940s, which allowed us to trace the policy of the Soviet government in relation to the former privileged layers of Turkestan society, as former police chiefs, officials, and the national political elite (Khans, Qazis), the bourgeoisie; to identify which particular social groups and strata of society belonged to them, which social categories were used by the authorities to label them, in which context certain combinations were used, and what is important, in which sections and articles of the fundamental law of the Soviet state these questions found their reflection.
