This edited book looks to analyse the political aspects of this event more specifically by trying to understand its political significance for the country's policies, the prospects of democratisation, the uniqueness of the transition compared with others that have previously occurred in the region and how it may play an influential part in future political transitions in this part of the world. This book will interest scholars of authoritarian politics, scholars of Central Asia, and those researching the Belt and Road Initiative. Jean-François Caron is an Associate Professor at the Department of Political Science, Nazarbayev University, Kazakhstan. 410 0$aThe Steppe and Beyond: Studies on Central Asia,$x2524-8367 606 $aAsia$xPolitics and government 606 $aRussia$xHistory 606 $aEurope, Eastern$xHistory 606 $aSoviet Union$xHistory 606 $aExecutive power 606 $aAsian Politics 606 $aRussian, Soviet, and East European History 606 $aExecutive Politics 615 0$aAsia$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aRussia$xHistory. 615 0$aEurope, Eastern$xHistory. 615 0$aSoviet Union$xHistory. 615 0$aExecutive power. 615 14$aAsian Politics. 615 24$aRussian, Soviet, and East European History. 615 24$aExecutive Politics. 676 $a958.45086 702 $aCaron$b Jean-Franc?ois$f1980- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484858503321 996 $aUnderstanding Kazakhstan's 2019 political transition$92851779 997 $aUNINA
