KAZAKHSTAN: POWER AND THE ELITE

About this book

"Kazakhstan is the largest state in Central Asia. Based on original material and extensive interviews in the capital and three of the country's regions, the book places the elite in the country's broader institutional and historical context, analysing their identity, behaviour and how they gained and secured power in the early independence years. Kazakhstan: Power and the Elite is essential reading for all those interested in the history, politics and international relations of this fascinating country."--Jacket.
