From a thousand flowers I would lay a carpet at your feet,
Your sweet fragrance is my heaven on earth.
You are my muse in the quiet of the night,
My angel who comes to my rescue when I fall.
When pain weighs on me, you are my healing cure,
My most beautiful flower from the gardens of Paradise.
You are my radiant sun that lights my day,
My moon that shines through winter nights.
If you are by my side at every moment, every breath,
My entire life will pass in beauty and light.
To express the love I hold for you –
If it were possible even once,
I would offer my very existence for you.
My soul, my dear mother, is devoted to you alone.

Enhancing Women’s Employment and Entrepreneurship – A Factor of Socio-Economic Development
Today, women’s active participation plays a crucial role in ensuring the sustainable development of society, the growth of the economy, and the well-being of families. Women’s active involvement in the labor market not only increases their personal income but also expands the country’s economic potential and contributes to job creation. Therefore, it remains one of the most important social issues.
The Importance of Increasing Women’s Employment
Women’s employment is closely linked to their social activity, economic independence, and growing status in society. An employed woman:
Contributes to the economic stability of her family; Creates opportunities for raising healthy and educated children; Participates actively in social life; Realizes her talents and abilities.
Furthermore, the effective utilization of women’s labor leads to an increase in the number of skilled professionals in the labor market. Women’s potential is especially high in fields such as education, healthcare, services, handicrafts, and innovation.
Entrepreneurship – Expanding Opportunities for Women In recent years, special attention has been paid to the development of women’s entrepreneurship.
Starting their own businesses allows women to: Achieve financial independence; Work in areas of personal interest; Create additional employment opportunities; Strengthen their social engagement.
Small business and family entrepreneurship, in particular, serve as favorable directions for women living in rural areas. Traditional and profitable activities such as tailoring, cooking, livestock breeding, carpet weaving, gold embroidery, and needlework remain key sources of income for women.
State Support for Women’s Development To support women’s empowerment, the following measures are being implemented:
Organization of vocational and professional training courses; Provision of preferential loans, subsidies, and grants; Implementation of projects enabling remote work; Establishment of business advisory centers; Introduction of special programs for socially vulnerable women.
These initiatives are creating a solid foundation for women’s active participation in the economic sphere.
Challenges and Solutions However, in certain regions, several challenges persist in increasing women’s employment:
Insufficient qualifications and education; Limited access to financial resources; Social stereotypes and psychological barriers; Time constraints due to family responsibilities. To overcome these barriers, it is essential to: Provide women with training in modern professions; Develop their entrepreneurial skills; Expand remote work opportunities; Strengthen mentorship and advisory systems; Promote gender equality within families.
Conclusion Women’s employment and entrepreneurship are vital indicators of social progress.
By supporting women economically: Family welfare is strengthened; Poverty rates decline; New jobs are created; The national economy develops sustainably.

WAYS TO IMPROVE THE STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN ENTERPRISES
Student of Technical University
Yorboboyeva Zarina Abstract.
This article analyzes the essence of the strategic management system in enterprises, its role and importance in modern economic conditions. It also highlights the main directions for improving strategic management systems, including innovative approaches, digital technologies, human resource development, and increasing the effectiveness of strategic planning. The research results substantiate the importance of strategic management in ensuring sustainable development of enterprises.
Introduction In market economy conditions, enterprise activities are becoming increasingly complex, and the competitive environment is intensifying. Under such circumstances, achieving long-term success, sustainable development, and competitiveness directly depends on the effective organization of the strategic management system. Strategic management serves to determine the future development directions of an enterprise, analyze the external and internal environment, and ensure the rational use of resources.
Today, globalization, digitalization, and the acceleration of innovation processes require enterprises to continuously improve their management systems. Therefore, developing strategic management systems in accordance with modern requirements is considered one of the most pressing issues.
The Essence and Importance of the Strategic Management System
Strategic management is the process of defining an enterprise’s long-term goals, developing strategies to achieve them and implementing these strategies. It includes not only planning but also adapting to changes in the external environment, creating competitive advantages, and efficiently managing resources. The main elements of the strategic management system include: defining the enterprise mission and objectives; analysis of the external and internal environment (SWOT and PEST analyses); strategy development; strategy implementation; monitoring and evaluation.
Proper implementation of this system ensures stability in enterprise activities and enables the achievement of high economic results in the long term.
Existing Problems in Strategic Management Systems in Enterprises Practice shows that in many enterprises, strategic management systems do not function effectively enough. This may be caused by the following factors: strategic planning becoming formal in nature; insufficiently deep analysis of the external environment; gaps between strategy and operational activities; lack of strategic thinking skills among managers and employees; slow implementation of innovations.
These problems reduce enterprise competitiveness and limit adaptability to market conditions. Improving the Strategic Management System
One of the most important ways to develop the strategic management system is to improve the strategic planning process. This includes:
ensuring alignment between long-term and short-term goals;
conducting analyses based on real market data;
developing alternative strategies. In addition, involving all departments in the strategic planning process is advisable in order to form a collective approach. 3.2. Implementation of Innovation and Digital Technologies In modern conditions, digital technologies are becoming an integral part of the strategic management system. The use of information technologies:
accelerates the decision-making process;
increases the accuracy and transparency of data;
expands strategic forecasting capabilities. For example, business analytics systems, artificial intelligence, and big data play an important role in substantiating strategic decisions.
3.3. Strategic Management of Human Resources The effectiveness of the strategic management system largely depends on human resources. Developing employees’ qualifications, motivation, and strategic thinking skills is achieved through the following measures:
continuous professional development and training;
implementing incentive systems based on strategic goals;
developing leadership skills. Investments aimed at human capital contribute to the long-term development of the enterprise.
3.4. Strengthening the Strategic Control and Evaluation System It is important not only to develop a strategy but also to continuously monitor its implementation. This includes:
introducing a system of key performance indicators (KPIs);
regular analysis of results;
making changes to the strategy when necessary.
A flexible strategic control system enables enterprises to respond quickly to changes in market conditions.
The Role of Strategic Management in Increasing Competitiveness Through the strategic management system, enterprises:
form competitive advantages;
correctly select market segments;
gain a deeper understanding of customer needs. As a result, enterprises achieve a strong position in the market through the quality of their products and services, innovation, and pricing policy.
Conclusion In conclusion, improving the strategic management system in enterprises is of great importance in a market economy. By deepening strategic planning, implementing digital technologies, developing human resources, and strengthening the strategic control system, enterprises can increase the efficiency of their operations. This, in turn, contributes to long-term sustainable development and competitiveness.

Annotation: This article provides a literary and philosophical analysis of “Jimjitlik” (Silence), a work by one of the prominent representatives of Uzbek literature, Said Ahmad. The study reveals how the author portrays the contrast between external silence and inner rebellion, the contradictions within the human psyche, and the issues of injustice and indifference in society. Through the characters of Tolibjon and Mirvali, the writer artistically interprets the struggle between good and evil, awakening and heedlessness. The article explores the symbolic and spiritual essence of the concept of “silence”, arguing that a person’s habituation to silence becomes one of the main causes of social tragedies. This study aims to deepen the understanding of the social significance of Said Ahmad to highlight the educational and awakening power of literature.

REBELLION BEHIND SILENCE: THE TRAGEDY OF STILLNESS IN SAID AHMAD’S WORK
Introduction
One of the most distinguished figures of Uzbek literature, Said Ahmad, portrays life’s realities, human emotions, and social transformations with remarkable depth in his works, offering consolation through words to the unspoken pain and suffering burning in people’s hearts. The author elevates everyday realities to the level of art. The work “Jimjitlik” likewise raises pressing social and spiritual issues, confronting the reader with a truth wrapped in comforting illusions, even if only for a moment.
Where does silence exist? Is it in the mountains caressed by clouds, in the steppes filled with blooming tulips, in streets resonating with children’s joyful laughter, or in hearts where childhood id buried, or perhaps in graves where hearts that once sheltered goodness now lie?
The work depicts the inner storms hidden behind external silence, the contradictions within human psyche, indifference toward social changes, and how those in high positions, with bloodstained hands, rock the cradle of the people and hinder the awakening of a new generation. It reflects the lives of individuals struggling through the complexities of existence and their responses to social injustice.
The characters in the work are vivid, convincing, and genuinely representative of the people. Each character is a product of their environment. The narrative begins with Tolibjon – who has suffered the merciless blows of life, whose unfortunate fate has left him disoriented, and who seeks a quiet refuge from the turbulent, noisy storms of a restless era – silently swallowing his bitter tears. His heart’s mute cry and wordless rebellion unfold within the embrace of “silence”. He wishes for the mountain children growing up in heedlessness to receive education, to advance not only through physical labor but also through intellectual development.
“My youth lives in Tolibjon. The best part of my life remained in the chest of this young man”, he would say.
At first glance, these words seem to touch the heart. Yet they belong to Mirvali – a man whose eyes have hardened like mountain rocks, whose conscience does not tremble at the sight of death, who has destroyed the lives of countless young women.
Know this: when a person commits a sin, the face of the heart darkens. If one is fortunate, that darkness emerges outward so that they may quickly refrain from sin. But if one is unfortunate, the darkness remains hidden within, unnoticed even by the person themselves. As a result, they sink deeper into sin. Thus, Mirvali – transformed into a “frog prince” by the swamp of sin – soils his hands with the blood of countless innocents, driven by his eyes that can never be filled except with soil and by his fear of losing his seat of power.
Conclusion
Such Tolibjons and Mirvalis can be found in every era and every place – only under different names and appearances. As you read the work, you fell an urge to caress the head of the orphan and to seize the banner of Truth from the hands of the righteous, raising it high. Yet this is not something achieved through empty words or mere imagination. First and foremost, one must refuse to accept silence and prove resistance through action. Knowledge is essential both to give voice to the emotions surging within the diminishing their power. A reader of this book comes to understand that the root of all ignorance lies in heedlessness and indifference

Beyond Heaven Beyond Hell is not JUST an epic poem: beyond that, it’s a philosophical inquisition staged as verse play, where divinity and humanity alike are compelled to give testimony, along with technology and conscience. Anand builds a cheeky metaphysical architecture where Heaven and Hell are no longer places you go, but states of being, and Earth is the fiercely contested reach between them. The epic posits an extreme thesis: Modern man’s moral crisis surpassed the traditional eschatology, requiring other ethical tools — judiciousness with AI, say — to read the ledger of handiwork.
At the heart of the work lies a brutal dichotomy: good is punished, evil prospers and divine justice seems slow, opaque, even corrupt. Such tension constitutes the dramatic engine of the poem.
Figures such as God, Dharmaraja, Chitragupta, Narad, Craza (the techno-king), and Robertica (the sentient machine) are not ornamental allegorical figures; they are dialectical catalysts through which Anand examines power, obligation and crimes against clear conscience. “ICU of AI” is most striking: a chillingly modern purgatory where conscience is scanned, intention weighed and punishment optimized. Here, speed replaces mercy, efficiency takes the place of mystery — and even the gods get nervous. So be it, kind of: progress goes both ways.
The epic is an artificial form that combines scriptural cadences, dramatic dialogue, chorus and philosophical treatise. The prose is deliberately plain-spoken — sometimes plain-old spoken to the point of bluntness — forgoing florid beauty in service of moral clarity. Such refrains as “Language has been used on an enormous humanity scale to delude the masses” are not poetic metaphors but moral axioms. The power of the epic lies in repetition, accumulation, relentless questioning: Why do people pray yet not act? How is it that the leaders are well and the good are ill?
How fear triumphs when wisdom loses. Anand refuses such easy comforts; he insists on responsibility.
But a corner is turned when the poet finds himself brought before God, while still alive.
The epic’s social critique is just as unsparing. Religious heads, power brokers and the socalled “Club of the Wise” are revealed as empty holders of delegated authority. Shrines are turned into stages, rituals become form without meaning and wisdom the mask for greed.
When catastrophe at last rouses humanity’s fear, the poem compels its bitterest irony: terror restores faith where conscience had failed. What teaching failed to accomplish, thunder does. That is the verdict, as chilling as it is unforgettable.
Ultimately, Beyond Heaven Beyond Hell claims that there is nothing to look for in Heaven or Hell— both places are already instantiated in human behavior. The epic is a moral seismograph of our times: technologically advanced, ethically beggared — theatrically devout, spiritually adrift. Anand writes with prophetic urgency, not to entertain or please, but to warn. You do not close this book comforted; you close it implicated.
ALFONSO REYES: CARTOGRAPHY OF THE SPIRIT AND THE WORD, BY BEATRIZ SAAVEDRA GASTÉLUM.
By Angelina Muñiz Huberman
It is an honor to present the new book by Beatriz Saavedra Gastélum, which includes my prologue and the introduction by Adolfo Castañón, as well as the back cover blurb by Javier Garciadiego, all of whom are great connoisseurs of the work of Alfonso Reyes. Cartography means guide or maps, and we know that Beatriz belongs to the National Academy of History and Geography, as well as institutions such as the Capilla Alfonsina. She has received national and international awards and distinctions, and her work has been translated into several languages. This book, published in Spain by Sial Pigmalion, received the 2025 Aristotle International Prize for Thought and Essay.
Throughout the essays collected in “Cartography of the Spirit and the Word”, Beatriz Saavedra has managed to identify the central theme of Alfonso Reyes’s work. It is exile, with its multiple variations, contributions and losses, substitutions and discoveries, that determines the actions and creations of his prolific career. The parallels with other exiles highlight the figure of María Zambrano in her poetic-philosophical dimension. Reyes and the philosopher engage in dialogue and embody the word for a greater understanding of the world itself. “Both understood that exile is an ambiguous space: division and openness, pain and possibility.”
Regarding exile, Beatriz Saavedra says: “Life in exile, marked by the feeling of estrangement, resembles in many ways a life of fiction, where the boundaries between the real and the imaginary become blurred.”
Finally, “Cartography of the Spirit and the Word” concludes with a reflection on the metaphysics of absence in relation to the friendship between Borges and Reyes. Both were experts on absence and admirers of each other’s work. Both agreed on the essence of poetry and knowledge. Image and metaphor as suggestive projections and openness to free interpretation. Poetry as “a necessity of the soul.” Poetry in the realm of revelation where time and space are transcended.
The fitting way to end *Alfonso Reyes: Cartography of the Spirit and the Word* is with the transcription of the poem “In Memoriam,” written by Borges upon Reyes’s death, whose final lines read:
Let not my tear profane this verse
That our love inscribes in his memory.
In “Cartography of the Spirit and the Word”, Beatriz Saavedra has achieved an ideal overview, providing the reader with a panoramic view of Alfonso Reyes’s work. Thank you, Beatriz.
