  • Institutional Reforms Within the Framework of Central Asian Political Consolidation
    Uluslararası İlişkiler ve Diplomasi Dergisi/Journal of International Relations and Diplomacy Cilt/Volume: 3 Sayı/Issue: 1 Mart/March 2020 ss./pp.24-43 INSTITUTIONAL REFORMS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF CENTRAL ASIAN POLITICAL CONSOLIDATION * Asst. Prof. Kaan DİYARBAKIRLIOGLU ABSTRACT Stagnation in the Soviet Union that began in the 1970s could not be prevented despite all the reform efforts (perestroika and glastnost) made by Gorbachev who came to power in 1985, and the Soviet Union has entered a process of disintegration after 1987. After that, Central Asian Republics gained their independence and attempted to make a change and transformation in their institutional structures in order to integrate into the international system. This study focus on the examples of Kyrgyzstan, which has a political development that is unique to Central Asia, Kazakhstan, which has a pioneering role with the rapid transformations it creates in both political and economic institutions, Turkmenistan, which has been isolated from the outside World, Uzbekistan, which performs this transformation progressively and Tajikistan that have a distinct character due to the civil war it has been through. As a result of this study, it can be stated that these Central Asian states are not ready for a parliamentary form of government due to existing national, ethnic and religious divisions, which can lead to destabilization of the political system and prevailing of dominant clans. However, they need a stable presidential power, which will allow to avoid crises like the revolutions of 2005 and 2010 in the future. Key Words: Soviet Union, Central Asia, Political Institutions, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan JEL Codes: F55, N45, H77 ORTA ASYA’DA SİYASİ KONSOLİDASYON ÇERÇEVESİNDE KURUMSAL REFORMLAR ÖZET 1970'lerde başlayan Sovyetler Birliği'ndeki durgunluk, 1985'te iktidara gelen Gorbaçov'un yaptığı tüm reform çabalarına (perestroika ve glastnost) rağmen engellenemedi ve Sovyetler Birliği 1987'den sonra bir dağılma sürecine girdi.

  • CADGAT Central Asia Data Gathering and Analysis Team GENDER and POLITICS in CENTRAL ASIA
    CADGAT Central Asia Data Gathering and Analysis Team GENDER AND POLITICS IN CENTRAL ASIA 1 Central Asia Regional Data Review No. 6, August 2012 In 2009, the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI) and the OSCE Academy established the Central Asia Data-Gathering and Analysis Team (CADGAT). The purpose of CADGAT is to produce new cross-regional data on Central Asia that can be freely used by researchers, journalists, NGOs and government employees inside and outside the region. The project is managed and the reports are edited by Kristin Fjaestad and Indra Overland at NUPI. Comments and questions can be sent to: [email protected]. The datasets can be found at: www.osce-academy.net/en/cadgat/ 2 Introduction In addition to bringing together available figures for the Central Asian countries, this data review aims to produce some new data, while also providing an overview of developments with regard to gender and politics from independence until today. The data were collected between October 2011 and February 2012 by individual researchers in each of the five countries. Variation in terms of data availability and quality across the countries must be noted. Sources and methods used are listed in footnotes. The report is divided into four parts: gender in governments, parliaments and political parties, and descriptions of the gender quotas in Kyrgyzstan and in Uzbekistan. Main findings: The revocation of gender quotas after the fall of the Soviet Union has led to a significant reduction in the number of women represented in political institutions at the national level, particularly for government positions, but also in parliament.

  • Kazakhstan: Why Local Elections Will Be Based on Party Lists Now?
    Kazakhstan: Why Local Elections will be Based on Party Lists Now? “The constitutional law adopted in Kazakhstan has made the elections to maslikhats controllable by local executive bodies. A transition to the proportionate model of election of maslikhat deputies bears political risks for regional development and in future can lead to a constitutional default,” – Mereke Gabdualiev, constitutional lawyer, wrote in his article specifically for analytical website of CABAR.asia. Русский Қазақша Brief review of the article: Kazakhstan has an absolutely centralised model of a unitary state, where any appointment or election of an akim is controlled by the capital city to the maximum; The suggested limit of election of rural akims was not “adopted”; A transition to party-based maslikhats contravenes the constitution; The procedure of election of maslikhat deputies will totally depend on akims; In Kazakhstan, political parties are the appendages of the state apparatus. On June 29, 2018, the lower house of parliament of Kazakhstan adopted the constitutional law, which amended the valid constitutional law “On elections”. This law sets forth the proportional model of election of deputies to local executive bodies – maslikhats. Before the law was adopted in Kazakhstan, deputies of Majilis – the lower house of parliament, were elected through a party system. The deputies of maslikhats were elected through the majoritarian voting system. It means that previously both self- Mereke Gabdualiev.

Strengthened centralised authority In Kazakhstan, local administration consists of local state administration and self-government, as required by the constitution.
