Abstract
The research paper examines the historical-legal and socio-pedagogical role of the institutions of Kazakh traditional customary law in the formation of military-patriotic education. The study analyzes the influence of the norms of customary law («Zheti Zhargy», military-patriotic and military-combat traditions) on the development of patriotic consciousness among young people, as well as their sense of military duty and civic responsibility. Based on the findings of the study, customary law is considered as a value-based and normative foundation of militarypatriotic education, and directions for its digitalization and integration into the modern system of military-patriotic education in Kazakhstan are proposed. In addition, the scientific novelty of the work lies in the examination of the implementation of customary law norms into the digital systems of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Kazakhstan – «Smart Voenkomat», «Armia.kz», «Sarbaz 2.0», and «Askeri Ziyat». The empirical basis of the research consists of the findings of studies conducted by foreign scholars. The main objective of the research is the scientific substantiation of methods and mechanisms for preventing offenses arising among military personnel and soldiers in military organizations and institutions, as well as ways of resolving them through the implementation of customary law norms into the artificial intelligence-based digital systems of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
