Keywords:
Philosophical Ideas, Cultural and Educational Concepts, Traditions, Linguistic Features, Culture of Peoples, Cultural Upsurge, Cross-CultureAbstract
The article argues that the cultural and pedagogical ideas of scholars working in the 9th-12th centuries are considered the foundation of the unity of Turkic society, and that the lack of scientific knowledge and education worldwide leads to discord within society and the division of united peoples. It emphasizes that the "acme of science and cross-culture" in Central Asia is confirmed, and the main goal of the encyclopedic scholars who contributed to its rise was the desire to unite the Turkic peoples.
