Abstract "Kazakhstan: Snow Leopard at the Crossroads, examines the experience of Kazakhstan's transition over the past 30 years, explaining the political and economic performance of the country since the end of the USSR, through the country's institutions, policy choices and external environment. In their exploration of more than one thousand years of institutional development, the chapters analyse and assess the development of political arrangements and governance, and economic institutions, from pre-Russian colonization through to the Soviet experiment, and then take a magnifying glass to developments in a post-Soviet, independent Kazakhstan. Using a broad range of sources and data across disciplines, this book is the first explicitly to survey Kazakhstan's transition as a function of its history, its people and its institutions. Breaking new ground in institutional economics, it provides readers with a comprehensive examination of the history and development of Kazakhstan, and points to where it may be heading in the 21st century"-- Provided by publisher.
