В этой статье идёт описание о роли Казахстана в современном мире. Говориться о том, как трудно квалифицировать казахстанскую молодежь как важный субъект в системе политических отношений в современных условиях. По официальным данным, в стране действуют около 700 молодежных профсоюзов. Однако их реальное участие в политической жизни страны совершенно незаметно: средний гражданин вряд ли запомнит хотя бы три из таких организаций. Другим очевидным фактом является то, что за весь период независимости молодежные движения в Казахстане не смогли достичь своей главной цели - политизировать массы молодежи и обеспечить их активное участие в политических процессах.В этой статье идёт описание о роли Казахстана в современном мире.

Kazakhs role in the modern world.
“We need to look into the past in order to understand the present and foresee the future”
Nursultan Nazarbaev.
It would be hard to qualify the Kazakhstani youth as an important subject in the political
relations system in the current conditions. According to the official data, about 700 youth unions
are acting in the country. However, their actual participation in the country’s political life is quite
unnoticeable: the average citizen would hardly remember at least three of such organizations.
Another obvious fact is that during the entire period of independence the youth movements in
Kazakhstan failed to reach their main goal – to politicize the masses of youngsters and to ensure
their active involvement in the political processes.
The sphere of youngsters’ political activity is in many respects a carbon copy of the general
political system, with features typical for such system. The opportunism, the more active moves
only during the election periods, a low popularity among the population, the absence of
remarkable countrywide leaders – these are the distinctive features of the youth unions working
in the political field today. The only organization creating a semblance of youths’ political
activity in the society is MK Zhas Otan, a structural subdivision of the ruling party. Other youth
forces that announced their presence during the last elections to the Mazhilis have almost
completely stopped their political activity to date, with the exception of separate representatives
of the youth radical opposition, who surface from time to time with various actions of protest,
the latter having more of a PR effect than a political one.
In such conditions, naturally, this socialdemographic social group fails to be perceived as a
serious factor of influence on the country’s political life. The experts and politicians mention this
group as a political subject on rare occasions only, paying more attention to the social, cultural,
and other aspects of its vital activity. In most cases the political parties prefer to make bets on the
adult population, which is traditionally believed to be a more active and reliable electorate as
compared to the youngsters, with the official number of major youngsters (aged 18 to 29) in
Kazakhstan reaching the number of some 3.5 million people, which represents almost a third of
the voters.
The social sciences explain the low politicization among the youngsters by the specificities of
the vital cycle of this demographic group. It is believes that the principal events in a person’s life happen during this period – education, choosing the profession, starting one’s career and family,
and all of these events shift the political conscience further down on the priorities scale.
However, the history shows that there are times when the youth forces both become active
participants of the political life and act as the main player in the change of the social and political
paradigm. An illustrative example for Kazakhstan is the activity of the Kazakh youth in early
XXth century. During this period of vital importance for the country the youngsters became the
political avantgarde of the entire Kazakh society. Due to the activity of its notable
representatives the social and political development of the country gained significant momentum
on the path of progress. An original symbol demonstrating the achievements of youth back then
became a poem by Magzhan Zhumabaev «Мен жастарға сенемін!» (“I believe in the youth!”),
where the political portrait of the new generation was drawn to show its best.
Naturally, the modern youngsters are hardly bestowed with such revolutionary and reforming
potential that was inherent to the young generation of that time. It is mainly caused by the
difference between the sets of objective and subjective conditions which these two generations
were situated and brought up in. The historical context was different as well.
In general, the current expectations of the society insofar as the youngsters are concerned, are
reduced to preventing them from going down the way to radicalism and extremism. As it is
shown by the sociological research, the vast majority of the population is keen to preserve the
status quo, i.e. nobody wants revolutions or radical changes. Certainly, the current authorities are
the keenest to maintain the current situation, as they have learned from the experience of other
countries (and from their own experience as well) that the young forces have significant
destabilizing potential. That is why the current governmental politics in the domain of youth
concentrates on a maximum enrolment of activists and various movements into their ranks. It is
easy to notice that there are certain achievements in this respect. The youth wing of the ruling
party has become a political platform for the progressive youngsters where the latter have
possibilities to transform their ambitions into reality. Today, it gives the possibility to orient the
youngsters’ political activity in the needed direction without any risks for the current regime.
However, with all its outward attractiveness, the governmental politics for the youth is limited by
the reproduction of the old Communist educational model with all the resulting consequences.
An important role in the formation of the today youngsters’ political conscience was also played
by the social, cultural, and political environment, which was subjected to cardinal
transformations after the independence. A distinctive feature of this period was the general ideological disorientation that made the youth and the most conscious youngsters lose their
general ideals that would help them find their way in the process of their political socialization.
Therefore, the main problem in the current situation is that there is no understanding of the
values that were instilled in the new generation during the sovereign development of
Kazakhstan, both at the level of the State and at the level of society. There is no idea about the
political portrait of the modern young Kazakhstani. Nobody knows what their priorities are,
whether they are patriots or not, would they take on the current political traditions or, on the
contrary, would they bear something new? One thing is hard to understand – if taking account of
all the aforesaid, in a couple of decades, what kind of Kazakhstan will we live in?
