Abstract

Kazakhstan is one of the few countries worldwide endowed with a wealth of diverse natural resources. However, the country has yet to fully exploit these resources, for a variety of reasons, including high levels of corruption, ambiguous laws that cause confusion to the judiciary and consumers. The aim of this paper is to explore the exploitation of natural resource in the country from an international legal perspective. The article demonstrates how corruption hinders the exploitation of natural resources in Kazakhstan. It also describes how the current law seeks to address the issue of natural resource exploitation, noting its ambiguities. The paper concludes by highlighting the provisions made in the UN Declaration concerning Rights to Exploit Natural Resources, and makes recommendations concerning how Kazakhstan’s government can promote the rights of citizens to enjoy access to the land and natural resources.
哈萨克斯坦自然资源开发:外国投资的司法实践
哈萨克斯坦是世界上少数几个拥有丰富多样自然资源的国家之一。然而,由于各种原因,该国尚未充分利用这些资源,包括严重的腐败,模棱两可的法律,给司法机构和消费者带来困惑。本文旨在从国际法律的角度探讨我国自然资源的开发利用问题。这篇文章展示了腐败如何阻碍哈萨克斯坦自然资源的开发。它还描述了现行法律如何设法解决自然资源开采问题,指出其含糊不清之处。文章最后强调了联合国《自然资源开发权宣言》的规定,并就哈萨克斯坦政府如何促进公民享有土地和自然资源的权利提出建议。
