Abstract

Steppe diplomacy – is a topic that has been largely neglected in the studies of international relations. Since the state-building process is written predominantly in the sedentary lens of state, the steppe patterns of leadership, succession, and diplomatic relations are not considered under the studies of state politics. However, for the formerly nomadic nations as Kazakhstan, the study of steppe traditions and institutions, along with the interaction with both nomadic and sedentary nations is of high importance.
