Abstract

This paper discusses and analyses Kazakhstan's integration practices in the post-Soviet space. It is argued that Astana's active participation in the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) is linked to the significance placed on being "Eurasian" within Kazakh state identity. As such, the EEU should not be seen as solely driven by Russia as is often assumed. Kazakhstan is playing an essential function within the formation and development of this organisation.
