Abstract: The present study aims to examine the historical development of literacy debates in 15 post-Soviet countries established after the dissolution of the Soviet Union based on cultural and social developments, and the status and direction of literacy-related studies in the hybrid regimes formed by the unique characteristics and heritage of post-Soviet countries. Moreover, the study also aims to reveal the state of literacy in the Soviet Union and the post-Soviet countries, which are among the benchmark societies of non-Western modernization, as well as the events that took place in this process, and different debates on literacy in these societies within the framework of their state structure, ideological elements, and the underlying reasons. In the study, articles related to the keywords "literacy" and "digital literacy" published in post-Soviet countries were analyzed using the bibliometric method.
