Abstract

Bu makalede Kazakistan’daki millet inşası sürecine etki eden unsurlar üzerinde durulmaktadır. Milli kimlik konusu, milli ideoloji, tarih, dil ve benzeri öğelerle direk ilişkili olduğundan, Sovyet sonrası ülkelerde yaygın olarak tartışılan bir konudur. Makalenin yazarları, “millet” kavramının yeniden doğuşu, millet inşasında sivil ve etnik yaklaşımların rekabeti ve modern Kazakistan’da milli kimliğin oluşumunda Kazak ve Rus dillerinin çelişmesi gibi konulara değinmektedirler. Yazıda, Kazakistan’daki etnik kültürel sembolizmin en temel niteliği olmayı hedefleyen Kazak diline ayrıca önem verilmektedir. Ayrıca, Kazaklaşma politikasının özellikleri tartışılmakta ve bunun, Kazakistan’daki milli ve etnik gruplar arası ilişkilerin çözümünde etkin bir araç olacağı vurgulanmaktadır.

Nation-Building in Kazakhstan: Kazakh and Kazakhstani Identities Controversy

Abstract

The article dwells upon the factors impacting the process of nation-building in Kazakhstan. The question of national identity is widely discussed in Post-Soviet countries as it is directly connected to the national ideology, history, language and other issues. The authors consider the rebirth of the title nation, competition of the civil and ethnic approaches to the nationbuilding, and contradiction of Kazakh and Russian languages to be topical issues in the formation of national identity in modern Kazakhstan. Particularly important role is given to Kazakh language claiming the status of the main attribute of ethnic cultural symbolism of Kazakhstan. The article discusses the peculiarities of the policy of kazakhization and provides a conclusion that this is an effective solution for national and interethnic relations issues in Kazakhstan
