The idea of avoiding conflicts, and tying unity, harmony and peace may be hard to sense. Scholars of Sociology have identified some factors to which multiethnic environment would be peaceful and livable, raising the topic that concerns inter-ethnic relation to align with the concept of culture, social identity, economic political and issues. These terms all have their particular influences on how multiethnic society would be, either a land of peace or its opposite. This study precisely analyzes and lays description to what factors relatively have influence towards the relationship of many ethnic groups in a multiethnic society. The paper studies the fact that culture may have its role on how many ethnic groups live in a single society, while social identity political as well as economic factors matter in formation of inter-ethnic relations in a pluralistic society.","PeriodicalId":445107,"journal":{"name":"Kazakhstan-Spectrum","volume":" 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140391866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The variety of approaches to understanding the phenomenon of nationalism indicates the absence of a single universal theory. An attempt has been made to consider the rather complex problems of the nation and nationalism, based on the most influential concepts. The main attention is paid to the key theories of the nation and nationalism that developed in the 20th century. According to the main methods of research and analysis of the problems of nationalism, the following areas of research can be distinguished. First of all, primordialism, which substantiates the uniqueness of the phenomenon of nationalism. The communicative direction considers nationalism as the main tool for the modernization of traditional society. Constructivist theories view nations and nationalism as the result of purposeful activity. The nation, according to constructivism, is an artificial social entity. From the point of view of functionalists, the origin and development of nationalism is associated with the implementation of a certain social function. Representatives of functionalism see the main task of nationalism in ensuring the stability of social processes. The formation of nationalism is associated with the modernization of society, the emergence of compulsory education and common cultural values. The analysis carried out allowed the authors to conclude that these approaches can be the basis for researching the phenomenon of nationalism and developing practical methods for solving problems in the field of national policy in a multi-ethnic state.","PeriodicalId":445107,"journal":{"name":"Kazakhstan-Spectrum","volume":" 40","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140391388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After all, quality education is currently the key to determining competition in the domestic and foreign markets on the path to creating a New Kazakhstan. It also reveals the importance of reflective activities to improve the strategy for developing the quality of education in the conditions of creating a new Kazakhstan. The study of reflexive activity based on the concept of a “listening state” allows us to analyze the educational activities of higher educational institutions in accordance with the interests of the individual, society and the state. The article, based on quantitative and qualitative analysis of the results of reflective reports of students of higher educational institutions of the Republic of Kazakhstan, identifies such indicators as methods of motivating teachers, methods of stimulating professional growth, cognitive aspects, emotional mood and pleasure, and also structures students’ opinions regarding the actions and attitudes of teachers. It is noted that students' opinions about the quality of education largely depend on themselves, their perceptions and ability to reflect on their actions. Therefore, we can say with confidence that reflective activity is the main factor not only in personal development, but also in improving the quality of education","PeriodicalId":445107,"journal":{"name":"Kazakhstan-Spectrum","volume":" 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140392085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In modern science, the process of nation-building is associated with «identity», «identification», mainly implying civil and political identity. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, all countries began an active search for their own identity as the basis of nation-building, and this search is largely connected with history. Historical memory plays the role not only of preserving and transmitting information, but also of an ideological component - the unifier of an ethnos, a civil nation with the state into a single whole. The state as a subject of nation-building introduces ideologically actualized historical concepts into the historical consciousness of the nation. These concepts are actively introduced into a wide public discourse, where a special role is assigned to the scientific community. Based on the analysis of scientific works and discursive data, an attempt is made to show the place and role of the concepts «Chagatai ulus» and «state of nomadic Uzbeks» in the nation-building process of modern Uzbekistan.

The article focuses on a critical assessment of the modern international order, the consequences of its failures and ways to eliminate them. The modern international order is a well-designed decentralized system of multilateral governance that generally reinforces the norms of equality and non-discrimination. But in practice, this mechanism often fails. The reasons for its failures are the lack of effective mechanisms for neutralizing wars, the absence of uniform rules, the outdated structure of the UN Security Council, and the unequal right of veto among its members. This is evidenced by the ongoing local military conflicts in the world. The article substantiates the need and suggests ways to update the international order that ensures sustainable peace and security for all countries of the world.

The study puts this hypothesis to an empirical test by analyzing China’s views on intellectual property rights (IPR) since its WTO (World Trade Organization) accession in 2001. The article examines relevant People’s Daily commentary articles published from 2001 to 2022 using Structural Topic Model (STM) and domestic scholarly debates. The study identifies four prevalent themes, including IPRs and international competition, strengthening IPR protection, developing indigenous IPRs, and achievements and barriers in IPR development. It finds that although China has increasingly realized the importance of IPRs, China’s views on IPRs are predominantly oriented toward a realpolitik discourse on leveraging IPRs to enhance China’s overall national power in international competition. While socialization is at best subordinate to China’s domestic interests in shaping China’s views on IPRs, as the country’s worldview acts as a strong mediating force between international ideas and China’s views on IPRs.","PeriodicalId":445107,"journal":{"name":"Kazakhstan-Spectrum","volume":"420 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139331884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
