Public Sector Reforms in Kazakhstan

Exploring a 'Listening and Just State' Agenda

Herausgeber: Janenova, Saltanat; Makulbayeva, Gulnur

Beschreibung

This book explores the dynamics of implementation of the political and socio-economic agenda on building a ‘Listening and Just State’ during the first five-years of Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s leadership (2019-2024) through the OECD Public Governance Review framework and public policy scholarship. Bringing together established and emerging scholars on Kazakhstan as well as experienced practitioners to present a critical analysis of public sector reforms implemented amid challenging political transition, this book will interest policymakers, government officials, scholars and students of governance, public administration, and Central Asia. This edited volume provides insights into the key areas that are critical to successful public sector reforms, including administrative law, local elections, citizen participation, digitalization of public services, anti-corruption efforts, reforms in social welfare, health care, and higher education, and entrepreneurship policies. It offers valuable lessons based on the experience of Kazakhstan that can inform and guide ongoing reform efforts in the wider Eurasia.
