After the collapse of the USSR, did the people of Kazakhstan agree to be dependent on their elites?
Why weren’t there any major protests against Nazarbayev’s corrupt system?
Political scientist Dosym Satpayev believes that the silent majority never trusted the government and was not loyal to it. Moreover, for decades, Kazakhstanis were focused solely on survival, without state intervention.
“A different ideology is now hidden behind the silence,” says D. Stapayev.
