Keywords: crafts, cultural tourism, cultural ties, tourist infrastructure, cultural heritage, services market, crafts. I. Relevance Today, special attention is paid to the development of tourism services in the economies of developed countries. national handicrafts on the basis of tourism as one of the fastest growing types of industry, creating new jobs in the economy and the development of related industries. A number of scientific researches are being carried out in the world to improve the scientific and methodological bases of innovative development of national handicrafts and its market on the basis of tourism. In this process, special attention is paid to identifying trends in the development of the market of historical and cultural tourism services and the development of a model for the development of national crafts based on tourism in the national economy. At the same time, among the important issues in the development of national crafts on the basis of tourism is the strengthening of inter-sectoral cooperation in the management of tourism. As a result of reforms aimed at structural restructuring of the economy, modernization of leading industries, innovative development in Uzbekistan, the tourism industry is also rising to a new level. In order to diversify services in the field of tourism, to provide the population with new jobs, there is a need for in-depth scientific research, which will form the basis for in-depth analysis of the national craft market, tourism market and the development of relevant programs. Accordingly, it is important to identify the mechanisms for the development of national crafts with tourism and to study the theoretical and methodological aspects of determining the prospects. II. Methods, analysis of relevant literature and sources The article uses the methods of scientific abstraction, analysis and expert evaluation. Theoretical bases of development of national handicrafts on the basis of tourism, practical problems of its development K. Pander., Judith Pelts., G. Keller., B. Wollenweber., P. Franke., G.Degeorge., C. Macleod., B. Mayhew. reflected in the works of scientists [1]. In the context of the new, global task of cultural tourism, the development of national crafts on the basis of tourism as a factor and means of cultural rapprochement, avoidance of contradictions and intolerance, respect and tolerance, culturally based industries serve a special role in shaping the aesthetic worldview of peoples. Socio- 1256 JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 11, 2020 economically, the development of handicrafts on the basis of tourism includes the whole socio-cultural environment, which has the characteristics of traditions and customs, domestic and economic activities. The minimum set of resources for tourism can be given by any particular place, but for its mass development it will be necessary to have a certain concentration of cultural heritage objects [2]. In these approaches, handicrafts developed on the basis of historical and cultural tourism are considered as participation in a tourism program, which includes knowledge of the culture and cultural heritage of the country, acquaintance with the culture and cultural environment of the destination. The lack of theoretical and methodological coverage of the issues of improving the organizational and economic mechanism for the development of national crafts in Uzbekistan on the basis of tourism in the scientific work carried out by the above-mentioned scientists served as a basis for determining the direction of research. III. Results of the research The world's interest in Uzbekistan, which gained independence in the 90s of the last century, is growing in the new century, especially in the historical monuments, folk crafts and national traditions, which are the rich heritage of our people. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the sale of national products on the international market. During the years of independence, great attention has been paid to small business and entrepreneurship. In accordance with the development programs developed during these periods, efforts have been made to further develop small business and private entrepreneurship in our country, and efforts are being made to such development. Entrepreneurship is developing rapidly in the developed economies of the world. The share of entrepreneurs in the gross national product of some Western European countries has risen to 70-80 percent. More than 70% of the country's population is engaged in small business and private entrepreneurship. Uzbekistan is also working hard to further develop entrepreneurship. An economic and legal framework must be created for the development and expansion of business entities. Areas such as handicrafts and trade also existed before. Entrepreneurship is now seen as a major driver of economic development, while at the same time playing an important role in providing employment, filling the market with essential consumer goods, developing the country's economy and improving the welfare of the population. Today, as before, international funds and organizations actively involved in tourism and the development of the economies of young countries in the CIS are actively involved in the restoration of traditional crafts. Their work focuses more on a particular type of craft or on centers that were popular in the past but are now extinct. For example, in Uzbekistan (in the 1990s) there was a UN project "Development of cultural acquaintance tourism and handicrafts" and "Support for artisans" under the American organization Counterpart Consortium [3]. They held various seminars, applied art fairs, invited experts from abroad to train local craftsmen in the use of traditional technologies, natural dyes, supported projects related to the activities of famous local craft centers. For this purpose, the UNESCO Program "Quality Mark for Handicrafts" was adopted. The program aims to support artisans who produce national handicrafts in innovative ways to ensure that national traditions and values, national handicraft skills and competencies are passed on to future generations and sustained. The Quality Label for Handicraft Program was adopted in 2001 at the initiative of the UNESCO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific in Bangkok and AHPADA, the Association for the Promotion of Crafts in Southeast Asia. Since 2004, the Program has covered Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tadjikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka from Central Asia The development of tourism programs in our country, which can attract the attention of the world community, especially the promotion of our national culture, will pave the way for further development of this system. In order to increase the tourism potential of our country and further expand the flow of tourists, the number of events related to folk games, national sports, national crafts and culinary arts is growing. To date, the world science and cultural community has formed an image of natural and cultural heritage as a priority social value that determines the dimensions of sustainable development. Attention to the development of national handicrafts can be seen in the organization of frequent exhibitions and trade fairs in our country and abroad, in which our artisans participate and sign contracts for the sale of their products. Proof of this is the fact that handicrafts are sold directly through workshops located near historical cities and architectural monuments visited by tourists. Even more recently, the demand for handicrafts in our domestic market has been growing, which means that the demand has increased by 30% in the last 8 years. However, it is expedient to expand the export of national handicrafts, to ensure the access of our national products to world 1257 JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 11, 2020 markets. Therefore, it is necessary to study the experience of foreign countries in this regard and use its relevant aspects. The success of market relations in Uzbekistan is characterized, first of all, by the change of property relations, the development of various forms of management and the creation of economic opportunities for this by the state as the main reformer. Therefore, small business and private entrepreneurship in the Republic of Uzbekistan are developing from year
