This article highlights the importance and role of raising legal awareness and legal culture in the process of building a democratic legal state. Legal culture is viewed as a crucial factor in ensuring social stability and citizen integration. Quotes from the speech of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Sh.M. Mirziyoyev, delivered on the 26th anniversary of the Constitution, emphasize the need to strengthen legal education among the population, especially the youth.

The article further explores the essence of legal consciousness and legal culture, their place in social life, and their influence on human behavior and activity. Legal culture is described using a symbolic "three-story building" model, which includes legal knowledge, attitude towards law, and legal behavior, with a foundation built on moral, ideological, political, and legal values.

In the final section, the article underlines the importance of cooperation between family, community (mahalla), and educational institutions in shaping the legal culture of the younger generation. It discusses the social and legal responsibilities of parents and their influence on children’s upbringing. The need to integrate pedagogical and psychological approaches in legal education, provide methodological support to parents, and involve youth in entrepreneurship and sports is emphasized.
