Abstract:

Le projet soviétique de sédentarisation des Kazakhs avait une vocation modernisatrice totale : la fixation des nomades et la transformation de leur structure sociale. Le plan de sédentarisation, déclenché avec la collectivisation devait répondre aux impératifs économiques de l'URSS : le renforcement de l'agriculture, soutien de l'industrialisation, au détriment de l'élevage. Mais la conjonction de diverses mesures coercitives provoqua le rejet massif de cette politique. La chute exceptionnelle du cheptel, les vagues d'opposition, le chaos généralisé conduisirent à la fuite des nomades, à la famine et à une forte mortalité. Le rapatriement des réfugiés kazakhs rendit possible la maîtrise de leur sédentarisation dans les industries, l'agriculture et les nouveaux kolkhozes d'élevage. Le modèle inédit né de cette expérience associait aux normes soviétiques de production les techniques pastorales des nomades, excluait la mobilité du groupe mais laissait se recomposer la structure lignagère
The Soviet settlement project of the Kazakhs was a plan of total modernization. It tried to fix the nomads and to transform the structure of their society. The settlement project initiated during collectivization had also an economic purpose : to strengthen agriculture instead of stock rising, to support industrialization. Nomads rejected this policy because of the obligatory procurements, repressive measures and collectivization. Exceptional decrease of the livestock, strong opposition and global chaos led to the flight of a large part of population, to famine and to a high level of mortality. Repatriation of many Kazakh refugees made possible the control of their grudgingly settlement in industry and agriculture, but also in new stock-rising collective farms. The original model of society emerged from this experiment combined soviet principles of production with pastoral techniques of nomads. It excluded mobility of the whole group, but led lineage structure re-form

Abstract:

Various sources on Kazakh history demonstrate that a Kazakh culture was generated out of the predominantly pastoral experiences of its people. For centuries, Kazakh communities were engaged in a definite set of practices prescribed by pastoralism. Firmly incorporated into the all-Union structure of Soviet republics, Kazakhstan made an impressive transformation from a predominantly pastoral to an agroindustrial region with one of the most vibrant economies in Central Asia. Sovereignty in 1991 pushed the historic trajectory of the Kazakh nation further ahead, prompting its citizens to engage in self-reflection, and attuning their collective memories to a new set of social and political realities. It also brought the country closer to the city, as hundreds of thousands Kazakh villagers left their homes for urban areas following the downfall of the 'transitional' economy that ensued in the wake of the demise of socialism. This thesis presents an analysis of data that was collected during twelve months of ethnographic fieldwork carried out primarily in Almaty, the former capital of Kazakhstan, in 1999. A principal aim in this study is to unravel emerging subjectivities and congealed meanings that have developed within the context of Kazakh rural to urban migration, especially that which occurred after the breakdown of the Soviet Union. It centers on important themes relating to Kazakh historic ancestry and culture, the colonial encounter, the city and its populace, as well as the recently achieved national independence, as they have unfolded in the narratives of recent arrivals to the city. How have the discourses of ancestry and modernity, mediated by their experiences of migration and displacement, been implicated in migrants' understandings of themselves and their nation? Special attention in my discussion is paid to the issue of whether the recent encounter of rural and urban worlds fostered the contemplation of specific narratives of the Kazakh nation, as it emerges from Socialism.

Abstract:

Fermée au monde jusqu'à l'effondrement de l'U. R. S. S. En 1991, la Kirghizie n'en a que mieux conservé ses spécificités locales. Le relief montagneux très accidenté, l'enclavement extrême du pays et la complexité du tracé de ses frontières ont favorisé le repli du peuple kirghiz sur lui-même et contribué à l'affirmation d'une entité ethno-politique propre, originale et ancienne à l'intérieur du monde turcique auquel il appartient. Les 21 tribus kirghizes sont regroupées en 3 grandes confédérations qui se partagent en 2 grands ensembles géographiques régionaux délimités par la rivière Naryn : le nord, peu islamisé, très russifié et ouvert à l'occident, et le sud, plus tourné vers les valeurs traditionnelles, prolonge le monde ouzbéko-tadjik sédentaire de la Vallée du Fergana. Initialement, la Kirghizie s'est trouvée prise dans les rivalités entre la Russie (puis l'U. R. S. S. ) et la Chine ; après 1991, les luttes d'influence se sont étendues aux nouveaux Etats riverains : le Kazakhstan, l'Ouzbékistan et le Tadjikistan. Actuellement, par delà les tensions régionales, l'antagonisme entre la Fédération de Russie et les Etats-Unis attise les querelles locales en se greffant sur les traditionnels antagonismes tribaux et ethniques. Toutes ces influences extérieures ont contribué à la construction de l'identité nationale kirghize. Cependant, aujourd'hui, cette même identité nationale se développe selon deux voies très différentes. A une identité nationale kirghize citoyenne, ouverte à toutes les minorités nationales, s'oppose une autre identité nationale kirghize, ethnique, centrée autour des seuls Kirghiz y compris ceux de la diaspora. Pourtant, une certaine ouverture démocratique différencie aujourd'hui la Kirghizie des autres républiques centrasiatiques. La démocratisation, bien qu'encore inachevée, est d'autant remarquable que la Kirghizie reste avec le Tadjikistan l'un des deux Etats les plus pauvres et les plus menacés d'Asie centrale par des rivalités tant internes qu'externesLe dynamisme d'une société kirghize, multiethnique, tolérante et ouverte au monde extérieur constitue le principal atout de l'enracinement de l'identité nationale et du respect de l'intangibilité des frontières, héritées de l'époque soviétique. Mais, la persistance d'un environnement régional et international instable représente encore la principale menace sur l'avenir du jeune Etat-Nation
Held apart from the world until the USSR collapsed in 1991, Kyrgyzstan has managed to preserve its local particularities. The extreme undulating mountainous relief, the extreme remoteness of the country, the complexity of the lines of its border have favoured the withdrawal of the Kyrgyz people and contributed to the affirmation of a proper ethno-politic entity, original and ancient, within the Turkish-speaking world to which it belongs. Kyrgyz people of Kyrgyzstan and from outside belong to 21 tribes grouped in 3 mains tribal confederations. They are basically divided in 2 geographical regional groups that are inherited from history and separated by the Naryn river : the north, not very greatly turned to Islam, but greatly to Russia and open to the west, and the south, more turning in on tradition, in continuation with the sedentary uzbek-tajik world of the Valley of FerganaFrom 1981 on, the struggles of influence that primarily involved Russia, (lately USSR), then China, have gradually spread to the new neighbouring states : Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. Moreover, on top of the local regional tensions, the antagonism between the Federation of Russia et the United States of America has worsened the local quarrels inside Kyrgyzstan, reinforced by the local tribal and ethnic antagonisms. The national identity was built up in close contact with the external influences. Nevertheless, that national identity follows nowadays two contradictory ways. A national identity civic and open to all national minorities is opposed to a national identity, more ethnical and directed to the genuine Kyrgyz people, including the members of the diaspora. Yet, Kyrgyzstan makes its difference with the surrounding republics through a democratic opening in all fields. The option for democracy, although uncompleted is remarkable, keeping in consideration the fact that Kyrgyzstan is, along with Tajikistan one of the poorest country in Central Asia and as that it is threatened by the merging centrifuge trends (national, tribal, ethnic and local identities), as well as by the hegemonic rivalries of both regional and international powers. The dynamism of the multiethnic, tolerant and opened to the world Kyrgyz society, is the main guarantee for the consistency of the national identity. It guarantees the respect of the intangibility of the border inherited from the soviet era. Nevertheless, the regional and international unstable environment represent the main threat for the future of that young state

Full text

Abstract:

Advocates of restorative and transitional justice practice have long drawn from practices of indigenous peoples to form the basis for more sustainable, relational, participatory, community-based approaches to conflict resolution. With the resurgence in Kazakh nationalism since the Republic of Kazakhstan independence, repatriated diasporic Kazakhs, who through cultural survival in diaspora retain more of their ethno-cultural characteristics, influence a revival of Kazakh language and culture. The purpose of this study was to understand the indigenous informal restorative conflict resolution practices of the Kazakh people. The questions that drove this study were: What indigenous informal forms of dispute resolution have been in use among Kazakhs, as reflected in their folklore and proverbs; which have continued in use among diasporic semi-nomadic Kazakh populations; and, which, if any, are restorative in nature? This ethnographic multi-case study incorporates participant observation and semi-structured interviews of participants selected through snowball sampling from among diasporic Kazakhs in, or repatriated from, China. Kazakh folklore and proverb collections were examined for conflict resolution practices and values at the family and kinship levels. Key theories used to explore the topic include Post-Colonial Theory of Sub-Altern Agency, Essentialism Theory, Soviet Ethnos Theory, and Restoration of Trust Theory. This study expands the knowledge base regarding indigenous systems of conflict resolution and contributes to the ethnography of the Kazakh people. The existence of indigenous informal restorative Kazakh systems of conflict resolution can inform reassessment and reform of public policy as to alternatives to punitive criminal justice practices.

Abstract:

This research is focused on understanding the ways in which the community orientation of the Kazak ethnic community in Istanbul, Turkey have contributed to their economic success which in turn encourages strong community, and the nature of their community-based support networks for providing material and cultural support. It examines the role of social capital and cohesion in maintaining the community with its positive implications for the continued building of wealth or sourcing of funding on a community level. The theoretical concepts relevant to this project are based on the ideas that the shared values of a community are a positive force that allow communities to achieve common goals and is particularly important in the context of an economy that favors cheap labor and a highly mobile workforce, both factors that negatively affect the asset building and place-based rootedness that communities require for their stability. Key community entrepreneurs and leaders were the main sources of information for this research. The findings of this thesis suggest that it is a combination of factors such as the failure of the community to maintain its stable economic position through unfortunate business practices and choices coupled with external market forces that slowed this community economic development and disabled its continued growth.

Abstract:

L’orientation essentielle de notre thèse concerne spécifiquement les relations intergroupes et les constructions identitaires en situation de pluralité culturelle, dans des contextes de changements sociaux importants et de ruptures idéologiques profondes. Nous nous intéressons au domaine particulier des sociétés post-soviétiques. Les changements politiques qui ont accompagné, au Kazakhstan, la chute du système en vigueur durant l’ex-URSS ont été à l’origine de nouvelles catégorisations sociales et ethniques : ethnie titulaire (Kazakhs) et non-titulaires (autres ethnies). Cette nouvelle classification a induit des changements importants au niveau des représentations de l’identité nationale et des rapports entre groupes ethniques. En effet, l’objectif idéologique du Kazakhstan est devenu celui de former une nouvelle nation sur la base de l'identité kazakhe mais celle-ci se heurte à l'opposition des groupes ethniques minoritaires et suscite l’élaboration des nouvelles stratégies identitaires destinée à réagir à la tendance d’unification de ce modèle Etat-Nation. Nous avons choisi pour notre étude la région centrale du Kazakhstan, où les contacts interculturels sont particulièrement soutenus du fait de la présence de plusieurs ethnies. Notre but est, en premier lieu, d’analyser les liens entre l’appartenance à un groupe ethnique donné et la construction de l’identité nationale ; et, en second lieu, l’effet de la construction identitaire sur les relations entre les différents groupes. Compte tenu de nos objectifs de recherche et des réalités du contexte sur lequel porte notre étude, nous avons retenu l’idée d’une méthodologie à la fois quantitative et qualitative : le questionnaire spécifiquement adapté à notre terrain et l’entretien semi-directif explicitant les variabilités interethniques. L’échantillon que nous avons retenu est composé de 371 jeunes âgés de 15 à 31 ans et représentatif des différents groupes ethniques en présence (Kazakhs, Russes et autres ethnies minoritaires)
Our thesis is mainly orientated on relations between groups and the construction of identity in a situation of cultural plurality. These mechanisms are studied in a context of important social changes and deep ideological fractures. We will focus more specifically on the post Soviet societies. The fall of the political system of the former USSR led to political changes in Kazakhstan. From these changes originated a new social and ethnic organization : appointed ethnic groups (Kazakhs) and non appointed ethnic groups (others ethnic groups). This new classification led to some considerable changes in the representation of the national identity and the relations between ethnic groups. The new ideological objective of Kazakhstan was indeed to build a new nation based on the Kazakh identity. However it encountered the opposition of minority ethnic groups which encouraged the development of new identity strategies so as to react to the unification tendency of this State - Nation's model. For our study, we have chosen the centre region of Kazakhstan where cross cultural contacts are particularly important due to the presence of several ethnies. Firstly, our goal is to analyse the links between the belonging to an ethnic group and the construction of the national identity. Secondly, we will interest ourselves to the effects of identity construction on the relationships between the different ethnic groups. Considering our research objectives and the reality of the context on which was based our study, we applied a both qualitative and quantitative methodology: the questionnaire is specifically adapted to our field and the semi – directive interview explains the interethnic variabilities. Our sample is composed of 371 young people aged from 15 to 31 years old, who represent the different ethnic groups in presence (Kazakhs, Russian and others minorities ethnic groups)

Abstract:

This thesis aims to understand the formation of the Russian identity in the Kazakh Steppes by examining the migration flows of Russians and the affects of state policies and pattern of inter-ethnic relations between the Russians and the Kazakhs during different historical periods. Constructionist theoryhas guided the analysis of the research. The Russian identity formation in the Kazakh Steppes is examined within the contextof three consequtive historical periods that correspond to fundamental social, political and administartive re-structuring. Firstis the period of the Russiam Empire, during which the resettlement policy of the Empire shattered the traditional social structures of the native Kazakhs and entailed extensive inter-ethnic contact between the Russians and the Kazakhs. Second period corresponds to the period of the Soviet Union, which experianced the intensification of Russian settelments in the Kazakh Steppes. The soviet policy, while encouraging Russianness as a component of soviet identity, atthe same time, granted autonomy todiverse ethnic entites. The third period, which correspondes to the current era starting with the disintegration of the Soviet Union, witnessed the emergance of Kazakh State. A large portion of the Russian population in the Kazakh Steppes remained in the independent republic of Kazakhstan and face a new challenges in tearms of identity formation due to the Kazakh nation building policies.

Full text

Abstract:

This is a comprehensive study on expressions of modality in one of the largest Turkic languages, Kazakh, as it is spoken in China. Kazakh is the official language of the Republic of Kazakhstan and is furthermore spoken by about one and a half million people in China in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region and in Aksai Kazakh Autonomous County in Gansu Province.The method employed is empirical, i.e. data-oriented. The modal expressions in Kazakh are analyzed in a theoretical framework essentially based on the works of Lars Johanson. The framework defines semantic notions of modality from a functional and typological perspective. The modal volition, deontic evaluation, and epistemic evaluation express attitudes towards the propositional content and are conveyed in Kazakh by grammaticalized moods, particles and lexical devices. All these categories are treated in detail, and ample examples of their different usages are provided with interlinear annotation. The Kazakh expressions are compared with corresponding ones used in other Turkic languages. Contact influences of Uyghur and Chinese are also dealt with.The data used in this study include texts recorded by the author in 20102012, mostly in the northern regions of Xinjiang, as well as written texts published in Kazakhstan and China. The written texts represent different genres: fiction, non-fiction, poetry and texts published on the Internet. Moreover, examples have been elicited from native speakers of Kazakh and Uyghur. The Appendix contains nine texts recorded by the author in the Kazakh-speaking regions of Xinjiang, China. These texts illustrate the use of many of the items treated in the study.

Abstract:

This dissertation aims to discuss the incorporation of the &ldquo
nationalist&rdquo
Kazak intellectuals of Alash Orda to the Soviet Socialist Republics and their role in the establishment of the Kazak ASSR. In the course of events they acted first together with Russian liberal democrats, then they sought to establish a national government and fought against the Bolsheviks, but after 1920 they chose to stay in the USSR and join the modernization process of their homeland alongside the Bolsheviks. In the mainstream academic discourse the local leaders in the republics of the USSR are generally considered as passive victims of the Soviet policies. The members of the Kazak national movement of Alash Orda are also neglected as weak political figures after they had accepted the Soviet rule. But they continued their struggle for enlightening the Kazak people in 1920s. Their collaboration with the Bolsheviks was concomitant to their motives of modernizing the Kazaks. Their role in the Soviet Kazakstan did not come to an end after their acceptance of the Soviet sovereignty but it continued. My argument is that the struggle of the members of Alash Orda was in continuity with their program before the revolution, and their cooperation with the Bolsheviks was a way to realize their objectives, and it opened a sphere for them to have a role in the formation of the Kazak ASSR.

Abstract:

Of all the Tsar’s former subjects, the Kazakh nomad made perhaps the most unlikely communist. Following the Russian Civil War and the consolidation of Soviet power, a majority of Kazakhs still practised some form of nomadic custom, including seasonal migration and animal husbandry. For the Communist Party, this population posed both conceptual and administrative challenges. Taking guidance from an ideology more commonly associated with the industrial landscapes of Western Europe than the expanse of the Kazakh Steppe, the new Soviet state sought nevertheless to understand and administer its nomadic citizens. How was nomadism conceptualised by the state? What objectives did the state set itself with regards to nomads, and how successfully were these objectives achieved? What confounded the state’s efforts? Using a range of archival documentation produced by Party and state, scholarly publications, newspapers and memoir, this thesis assesses the Soviet state’s relationship with Kazakh nomads from the end of the Civil War to the beginning of the collectivisation drive. It argues that any consensus about the proper government of nomadic regions emerged slowly, and analyses the effect on nomads of disparate policies concerning land-ownership, border-control, taxation, and social policies including sanitation and education. The thesis asserts that the political factor which most often complicated the state’s treatment of nomads was the various concessions made by the Bolsheviks to non-Russian national identity. Meanwhile the state also made some concerted efforts to adapt itself to the nomadic lifestyle of the Kazakh population. The thesis concludes with a summary of the sedentarisation campaign 1928-1934, in which nomadic communities were collectivised and brutally forced to settle. But the thesis’ central focus is on the years preceding sedentarisation, which have received comparably less attention in the historiography and, the thesis argues, represent a distinctive period for the state’s treatment of Kazakh nomads.

Abstract:

This dissertation concerns the development and interaction of Kazakh and Russian identities in post-Soviet Kazakhstan. My research questions were: (1) what was the character of these identities in 2003/04 (the time of my research); (2) how have these identities interacted to form dominant and subordinate identities, and (3) how can the character of these identities and their interaction be explained? In order to research these questions I used a general questionnaire followed up by open ended interviews of a representative sample of Kazakhstani citizens. While my research findings show continued uncertainty and provisionality in both Kazakh and Russian identities, which confirms the broad trend of previous surveys, they also indicate signs of change in the emergence of more consolidated dominant and subordinate identities in the less Russianised areas like Chimkent and among the younger generation, while by contrast the older generations of Russians, particularly in the more Russianised areas, find it difficult to accept the delegitimation of their dominant status as reflected in the nationalizing policies pursued by the new state. In theoretical terms these findings confirm the importance of the study of ethnic stratification, which has not received sufficient attention in previous research in this area. In explaining these developments I found that the character of the transition and also of the ‘prior regime type’ in Kazakhstan has had a significant effect on ethnic relationships, but also that international factors, such as those presented in Brubaker’s triadic model, and internal factors, elaborated by Schermerhorn and Horowitz, were also important.

l Aydingü
n September 2008, 114 Pages The aim of the thesis is to analyze the relationship between language and the formation of national identity in post-Soviet Kazakhstan. The launch of language policies in the Republic of Kazakhstan right after the break up of the Soviet Union aim to promote the status of Kazakh language as well as to support its use in state and public life spheres as a means of communication and to foster the national consciousness among the public. Although, official efforts combined with the discourses of the political elites aim to promote the status of the Kazakh language, various factors such as, the demographic structure, the quality of the Kazakh language and the rural and urban dichotomy, hindered the effective enforcement of these policies. The main argument of the thesis is that due to the existing factors which are mentioned above the usage of Kazakh language by the people of Kazakhstan as a means of communication in the short-run does not seem to be attainable. The Kazakh language, within the process of national identity formation, acts and would remain to act as a symbolic tool.

Abstract:

The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the implications of nation-building policies in Kazakhstan for the future of Kazakh identity. To consider the implications of largely inclusive policies, this dissertation investigates how young Kazakh adults, born and raised in different cultural and geographical contexts yet with a shared experience of studying and working in the capital city, perceive ethnic, civic, and cultural categories of national identity. A mixed methods approach is used, incorporating the comparative analysis of quantitative and qualitative data. A sample of 120 males and females aged 22 to 30, graduated from a higher education institution, and currently working in Astana, Kazakhstan, completed a questionnaire assessing subjective perceptions of their national identity. Quantitative data are complemented by qualitative data from 30 participants, providing depth and validity to the questionnaire answers. The young adults’ responses reveal that Kazakhs are becoming less segregated culturally, encouraged by the government’s inclusive form of nation-building, the relocation of the capital city and the economic growth. It is argued that the young adults are Kazakhs not only in blood and colour, but also in taste and perception. The prevalence of civic virtues despite the presence of robust ethnic identification was recognized and the urge to organise social life in terms of sharp nationalist boundaries proved thin. The implications of these findings for nation-building policies are discussed. Efforts should be directed towards introducing the historical inclusivity of Kazakh identity and highlighting the sufficiency of cultural integration of non-titular ethnic groups to become members of Kazakh nation.

Full text

Abstract:

This dissertation tells the story of what happened to Jungar refugees on the Qing empire's Kazakh frontier in the years immediately following the collapse of the Jungar confederation, 1759-1773. Narratives of violence have dominated the historiography on the fall of the Jungars. Nearly every history of the Jungars' demise highlights the Qing's violent massacres against the Jungar people, with several works even asserting these massacres were tantamount to "genocide." Based on a large corpus of previously unstudied Manchu documents, this dissertation moves beyond historical narratives that view the Jungar collapse solely through the lens of Qing violence by highlighting the important historical role that Jungar refugees played in the years following the disintegration of the Jungar state.

Abstract:

Kazakhstan's higher education system is based on the Soviet governance structure, limited academic freedom and no autonomy from the state. In such a system faculties are contract employees delivering predesigned courses with no incentive to bring new ideas and methods. But employers and the general public are concerned with the mismatch between market demand and curricula of universities. Qualitative research based on two case studies collected evidence on the opportunities for faculty to influence academic affairs of the two most prominent research universities in Kazakhstan. The study gave a detailed picture of state controls, hierarchical structures and limited role of faculty at the higher education institutions under investigation. The national universities of Kazakhstan were also compared with the University of West Florida, a public research university of similar size which is based on academic freedom, shared governance and faculty authority over academic matters. Conceptual framework for the analysis is based on the theory that university governance differs from other organizations in its involvement of faculty in decision making on academic affairs. The power is shared with faculty because of their recognized knowledge and authority in teaching and research in their particular professional fields.

The study identified that the national universities in Kazakhstan are established regulated and run like government organizations with a hierarchical structure. The existing centralized and stricter controlled environment results in frustrated and demotivated faculty who are not able to produce good quality teaching and research. Universities are required to produce similar academic programs and courses and offer a limited number of majors approved by the inter-ministerial committee. Structures of degree programs are set according to State Standards and contain certain share of mandatory courses which are provided by the Ministry. The universities are managed by the rectors who have wide powers especially in hiring and promotion of faculty as well as on other academic matters.

The research identified a number of shortcomings and mismatches with international theory and international best practice. If national universities are to develop they have to be allowed to compete and have freedom to innovate. The national universities need the governing boards to be introduced. Increasing faculty participation will be central to promoting key values of higher education such as academic freedom, autonomy and transparency. Empowering faculty will contribute to their greater responsibility and engagement in developing higher education institutions and their core functions of teaching, research and community service.

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis explores the post-return integration experiences of Chinese-born Kazakh returnees in Kazakhstan. Contemporary migration studies have explored a wide variety of integration processes and transnational practices among immigrants in different countries, however, there are only a limited number of studies on ethnic return migration into post-Soviet countries such as Kazakhstan, a new Central Asian country which emerged as a result of the collapse of Soviet Union at the beginning 1990s. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the newly independent Kazakhstan was a multi-ethnic society dominated by two major ethnic groups – Kazakhs and Russians. As a part of its nation-building policy, Kazakhstan launched an ethnic repatriation program which encouraged Kazakhs abroad to ―come back home‖ in order to help revive Kazakh identity, culture and language, and to contribute to building an independent Kazakh state. Beginning in 1991, around one million Kazakh returnees came to Kazakhstan but their integration into modern Kazakh society became a major challenge for the newly born Central Asian state. This thesis comprises a case study of the integration process of Chinese-born Kazakh returnees Kazakhstan. The complex processes of integration of returnees into modern Kazakhstan are examined by applying the two mainstream concepts of Segmented Assimilation theory and Transnationalism. I argue that although Chinese-born Kazakhs had similar ethnicity, culture, language, and religion to the settled Kazakhs in their ancestral homeland, the returnees tended to be incorporated into different segments of the host society, which encouraged the development of their transnational practices with China, and had led to the development their own ―shifted transnational identity as a reaction to unfavourable external environment in Kazakhstan.

Abstract:

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991, Turkey involved in many projects in all spheres with the Central Asian republics. In contrast, less of them have been realized. Turkey was more succesful in educational projects. It has initiated more permanent projects with the republics. In this regard, International Hoca Ahmet Yesevi Turk-Kazakh University, established in 1993 in Turkestan city of Kazakhstan, is one of the first and outstanding project of Turkey not only in education sphere but also in terms of all spheres. Concurrently, for the first time Turkey involved in an international higher education activity abroad. The existence of the university both facilitated the establishment of the subsequent Turkish universities in Central Asia and contributed to the sustainable enhancement of Turkish relations with the region. On the other hand, for the last two decades higher education is more highlighted as a cross-border issue mainly accelerated by the internationalization of higher education. Although the university is not directly prompted by the internationalization process, it both performs activities matching with internationalization and contributes to the development of this process in Central Asia. In this context, this study brings up the motives and objectives behind the establishment and structuration of the university, and argues that by foundation university has quite similarities with the rationales of the internationalization. Therefore, it aims to find out the compatible and incompatible aspects of the university with the internationalization in addition to clarify its identity and position as an international higher education institution.

Abstract:

En Asie centrale la construction soviétique s’est avérée difficile, puisqu’elle impliquait la transformation radicale des sociétés locales. Cette thèse va montrer comment les 70 ans de pouvoir soviétique ont changé pour toujours la société, l’économie et la culture du Kazakhstan. Une attention particulière est donnée à la population kazakhe à partir des premières années soviétiques, jusqu’aux années 2000, à leurs parcours dans la capitale soviétique et ensuite dans la métropole contemporaine. Cette thèse aborde les questions comme la rencontre des anciens nomades Kazakhs avec les Russes dans l’espace urbain, le rôle de l’ethnicité et de la culture locale dans les transformations promues par le pouvoir soviétique et, ensuite, dans le processus de construction nationale. La reconstruction de l’histoire sociale de la communauté urbaine, avec l’aide des archives et d’entretiens approfondis, nous révèle une société complexe qui a su adapter la culture locale et celle soviétique en créant sa propre version du soviétisme. Notre thèse suppose que dans ce contexte, les questions sociales liées à l’urbanisation, qui se perpétuent jusqu’à la fin de l’URSS, influenceront considérablement les transformations d’après 1991 et que sans une bonne attention à l’univers local, nous ne pouvons pas comprendre le passé soviétique en Asie centrale, ni les transformations récentes. Dans la ville, le pouvoir soviétique et ensuite celui du président kazakh Nazarbaev contribuent à construire des espaces publics et une mémoire urbaine qui racontent la modernité du peuple kazakh. Notre recherche montre que la ville est un cas d’étude utile pour développer un discours plus ample concernant les sociétés et les cultures du monde
In Central Asia the imposition of the Soviet State proved to be difficult, as it implied the radical transformation of local societies. This dissertation shows how 70 years of Soviet power changed forever Kazakhstan’s society, economy and culture. Its focuses in particular on the Kazakh people starting from the first Soviet years to the 2000s, and on their journey towards the Soviet capital and later towards a contemporary metropolis. This dissertation approaches questions such as the encounter of the ex Kazakh nomads with the Russians in the urban space, the role of ethnicity and of the local culture in the transformations promoted by the Soviet State and, later, in the process of nation building. The reconstruction of the social history of the urban community, with the aid of archives and in-depth interviews, reveals a complex society which adapted the local culture and the Soviet one to create its own version of Sovietism. My dissertation argues that in such context, social questions connected to the urbanization, which remain actual till the end of the Soviet Union, will affect considerably the transformations after 1991 and that if we do not pay the just attention to the local universe, we cannot understand the Soviet past in Central Asia, neither the recent changes. In the city, the Soviet power and, later, that of Kazakh President Nazarbaev, contribute to the construction of public spaces and of urban memory telling about the modernity of the Kazakh people. The city is, as I put it in my research, is a useful case study to develop broader questions regarding world cultures and societies

Abstract:

L’Asia Centrale, protagonista del Grande Gioco del diciannovesimo secolo e del Nuovo Grande Gioco durante gli anni ’90 del Novecento, rivestì nel corso dei secoli grande rilevanza economica e politica. Il multivettorialismo storico e geopolitico del Kazakistan consentì a numerosi attori esterni di rispecchiarsi e di ricollegarsi alla regione durante entrambi i “Grandi Giochi”; inoltre, tale carattere multipolare costituì la base della politica estera kazaka anche nel periodo che seguì l’indipendenza dall’Unione Sovietica. La formazione della Repubblica kazaka indipendente si svolse senza alcuna apparente frattura con il regime precedente: nel corso della tesi verranno analizzate le difficoltà incontrate dalla leadership kazaka durante la transizione, gli stratagemmi utilizzati dalla stessa per cementare il proprio potere e gli elementi di continuità con l’URSS. Infine, nell’ultimo capitolo verranno indagati i rapporti economico-commerciali italo-kazaki. L’Italia rappresenta un partner commerciale strategico per il Kazakistan: secondo le statistiche del 2018, l’Italia si è collocata al primo posto tra i paesi destinatari dell’export kazako. Pertanto, lo scopo dell’elaborato è quello di dispensare il mio personale contributo al fine di arricchire la letteratura scientifica riguardo l’argomento, analizzando la transizione del Kazakistan da Repubblica dell’Unione Sovietica a Repubblica indipendente e di annoverare le opportunità che il Kazakistan è in grado di offrire alle aziende italiane e straniere, andando ad elencare i rapporti commerciali già esistenti come modelli esemplificativi.

Full text

Abstract:

One of the first Village Prose writers was Yuri Kazakov. In his short stories about life in remote Russian villages, Kazakov was able to combine traditions of Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky with traditions of Turgenev and Bunin and created a unique style using psychological parallelism in lyrical prose. Through the aspects of village, nature, time, and native language, Yuri Kazakov exposed the life of the marginals. He was interested in individuals and their personal feelings and thoughts. He did not look at individuals as a part of society but rather as a part of and the creation of nature. Therefore, he found his characters in the remote Siberian villages where the Soviet regime and propaganda minimally influenced people’s lives and their traditional values. His characters cannot be characterized as simply good or bad. Through his characters, Kazakov investigated and explored the complexity of human nature, emotions, and motifs. In his stories, he was able to masterfully unfold human souls and draw their psychological portraits to address timeless philosophical questions about the purpose of live, moral choices, unity of people and nature

Full text

Abstract:

In this thesis, the purpose is to analyze the path that the nation building process in Kazakhstan has been following in the post-Soviet period through examining the various policies implemented and the official rhetoric and discourses stated by the Kazakh policymakers. The ethno-symbolist approach of Anthony D. Smith and the views of Walker Connor and Willfried Spohn on nationalism and national identity have been utilized in the analysis of the research. The Soviet Nationalities Policy is examined to be able to better understand the post-Soviet nation-building, because the policies implemented under this comprehensive project, which had been outlined by the Bolsheviks, had deep political, cultural, demographic and linguistic impacts on the process in Kazakhstan. The ethnic situation has also been laid down in order to highlight under which ethnic circumstances the nation building process has been taking place. After analyzing the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the post-Soviet policies about language, education, employment, culture and national symbols, the statements of the President Nursultan Nazarbayev and the move of capital, this study claims that post-Soviet nation building process and nationalism in Kazakhstan have both ethnic and civic components whereby the nation building process in Kazakhstan is a more ethnic process than it is civic.

Abstract:

This work focuses on the influence of terror, extremism, trafficking and corruption on the regional security of Central Asia, with a particular emphasis on Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan is regarded as the most stable and financially developed state in Central Asia, yet domestic and regional stability are threatened by the rise in extremism, narcotics trafficking, institutional corruption and acts of terrorism. The challenges of trafficking and extremism within the region originated from outside of Central Asia. Foreign organizations and ideologies are significant actors in progression of regional instability. Government response to these challenges can perpetuate or stymie the aforementioned threats to regional security. Repressive regimes inadvertently contribute to the propaganda of the non-state foes. A prominent solution is the international program referred to as border management. This program aims to support border security while also promoting economic growth and ensuring the protection of human rights. Improved borders promotes regional security, economic growth can potentially undermine the growth of corruption and human rights protection can undermine a large part of extremist propaganda.

Reproductive behaviour of repatriates from Mongolia and ethnic Kazakhs in Mongolia Abstract Differences and commonalities of reproductive behaviour of repatriates from Mongolia and ethnic Kazakhs currently living in Mongolia are the main focus of the submitted doctoral thesis.

Special attention in the work is paid to behaviour differentials by sex, age, attained educational level, place of residence and actual number of children. The leading intention was to show how migration, through disruption of original social networks and changes in the social environment during the first stage of socialization of the second generation of repatriates, influenced reproductive behaviour of women in particular birth cohorts. Besides, the presented doctoral research tries to answer the questions whether repatriates influence demographic situation in Kazakhstan in required direction by having (traditionally) numerous families or whether they...

Abstract:

abstract: This dissertation discusses children and childhood in Soviet Kazakhstan from 1928 to 1953. By exploring images of, and for, children, and by focusing on children’s fates during and after the famine of 1930-33, I argue that the regime’s success in making children socialist subjects and creating the new Soviet person was questionable throughout the 1930s. The reach of Soviet ideological and cultural policies was limited in a decade defined by all kinds of shortcomings in the periphery which was accompanied by massive violence and destruction. World War 2 mobilized Central Asians and integrated the masses into the Soviet social and political body. The war transformed state-society relations and the meaning of being Soviet fundamentally changed. In this way, larger segments of society embraced the framework for Soviet citizenship and Soviet patriotism largely thanks to the war experience. This approach invites us to reconsider the nature of Sovietization in Central Asia by questioning the central role of ideology and cultural revolution in the formation of Soviet identities. My dissertation brings together images of childhood, everyday experiences of children and memory of childhood. On the one hand, the focus on children provides me an opportunity to discuss Sovietization in Central Asia. On the other hand, this dissertation contributes to our understanding of Soviet childhood: it is the first comprehensive study of Soviet children in the periphery in English. It shows how images and discourses, which were produced in the Soviet center, were translated into the local context and emphasizes the multiplicity of children’s experiences across the Soviet Union. Local conditions defined the meaning of childhood in Kazakhstan as much as central visions. Studying children in a non-Russian republic allows me to discuss questions of ideology, cultural revolution and the nationalities question. A main goal of the dissertation is to shift the focus of Sovietization from the cultural and intellectual elite to ordinary people. Secondly, by studying the impact of the famine and the Great Patriotic War, I try to understand the dynamics of the Soviet regime and the changing conceptions of culture and identity in Soviet Kazakhstan.

Abstract:

Inner-state conflicts arising from cultural, ethnic, linguistic and other differences started appearing after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Kazakhstan, being one of the main recipients of the Slavic diaspora in Soviet times encountered the problems of interethnic distrust and alienation after 1991. Despite the fact the Kazakhstani government had announced as its main priority the construction of a civic nation and of the feeling of belonging to one state, it strongly supported Kazakh self-consciousness, which led to several consequences, one of which was intensive emigration of the Slavic population. It has resulted in demographic, socio- economic and interethnic tensions. Despite the fact these were studied to some extent, no comprehensive approach has been taken to analyze these issues. Therefore, this research paper aims to answer the question of how the Kazakhstani nation- building policy influenced the relations between Kazakhs and Russians. Given that the instilling of the national idea can be achieved through many institutions this research focuses on the historical narratives in school and university textbooks; administrative regulations and legislative systems, and their implications for each ethnic group; plus their implementation in the symbolic realm of the cities, which...

Kazakh Capitals and the Construction of Kazakh National Identity in the post-Soviet Period (1991-2011) Nariman Shelekpayev This thesis explores the urban landscapes of the two major cities in post-Soviet Kazakhstan: Astana and Almaty. Analysis of their urban architecture, organization of public spaces and toponymy provides information about the identity and the identification of the country in the twenty-first century. The main sources for this research are the texts produced by geographers, graphic representations (mainly photographs and postcards) and several textbooks on the "History of Kazakhstan". The primary research questions include how historical and political change (mainly the transition from Soviet to national in 1990s) influenced the urban landscape, the role of the urban landscape in construction of national (self-) identification, and what symbolizes "Kazakhness". From the temporal point of view, the study attempts a diachronic comparison of Soviet and post-Soviet Kazakhstan. From the spatial point of view, the analysis of the urban landscape in two cities located in different parts of the country with different history and geography helps to see different, heterogeneous territories which are part of one country. Astana is the capital of Kazakhstan, a city with the sharpest contrasts between...
