Abstract
This study is to contribute to the number of scientific works in social (human) geography. Under the term “New Uzbekistan”, we will examine the impact of reforms on gender equality based on spatial analysis. Since this is the first time our study has been conducted, so, we first covered the theoretical background in more detail. We have made the field of feminism and gender studies scientifically linked to our research. We analyzed the impact of Gender equality and feministic approaches on the issues of women's leadership positions. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the work that needs to be done in the context of gender studies and to identify the research that needs to be done in the future. In addition, there are limited sources on feminist geography and gender study works in Central Asia, particularly in Uzbekistan. We then examined the proportion of women in the workplace in the new Uzbekistan and the spatiality of leadership positions for women. In the concluding section, we have provided our comments and suggestions.
