The party was formed in 1995 with a largely intellectual membership and has a comparatively high proportion of female members.[4] The party advocates a strong sense of Uzbek culture, desiring a cultural revival, whilst also seeking to build closer links with other states in Central Asia.[5] The party opposes the influence of Russia in the region and attacked the foundation of the Eurasian Economic Community on this basis.[6]

The party announced its intention to merge with the Self-Sacrifice National Democratic Party in 2008, as the two parties shared common goals.[7] The new group has retained the National Revival Democratic Party name.[8]

Electoral history

In the 2004–05 Uzbek parliamentary election, the party won 11 out of 120 seats. The party's candidate for the 2007 Uzbek presidential election was Hurshid Dustmuhammad.[9]
