  • Nazarbayev and the Making of Kazakhstanby Jonathan Aitken

    Continuum International Publishing 2009; US$ 34.95

    Kazakhstan is colossal in size, complicated in its history, colourful in its culture and is a nation state that most outsiders know little of. Much of the existing narrative revolves around the country's first president, Nursultan Nazarbayev. But his life can only be understood in the context of the land in which he was born, raised and became a leader. For centuries the tribes of Kazakhstan had been plundered and conquered by foreign invaders. The most ruthless of these were the 20th century leaders of the Soviet Union, but after its collapse it was Nazarbayev who emerged as the new President of the nation state.

  • Russian Colonization and the Genesis of Kazak National Consciousnessby Dr Steve Sabol

    Palgrave Macmillan Ltd. 2003; US$ 130.00

    This study concentrates upon the socio-political and nationalist views of three influential representatives of the early twentieth-century Kazak intelligentsia: Alikhan Bokeilhanov, Akhmet Baitursynov, and Mukhamedzhan Seralin. The resulting discourse on literature, education, and politics shaped the Kazak nationalist movement before 1920. This study draws on the published works of the Kazak intelligentsia, the periodicals Ai qap (1911-1915) and Kazak (1913-1918), and archival records from the Central State Archives of the Republic of Kazakstan. more...

  • A Hedonist's Guide to Almaty and Astanaby Isabelle Kallo

    Hg2 2011; US$ 12.00

    Kazakhstan is thriving — it is fast becoming the business hub of Central Asia. Petro-dollars are flowing through the traditional and modern capitals of Almaty and Astana and businesses, tourists and investors are flocking there in droves. To cater to this smart hotels, gourmet restaurants and fast-paced bars are springing up in both cities. The Wild West frontier attitude is slowly fading and any comparisons with Borat have disappeared — instead replaced by a dynamism and eclecticism that is making both Almaty and Astana the cultural, design and entertainment centres of the region. more...
