THE DYNAMICS OF THE POPULATION’S ETHNIC COMPOSITION OF NORTHERN KAZAKHSTAN DURING THE SOVIET PERIOD(ON THE EXAMPLE OF UALIKHANOV DISTRICT)
The multiethnic population of the Republic of Kazakhstan was formed during the pre- revolutionary and Soviet migration periods, but during the post-Soviet period, the outflow of the Russian-speaking population is recorded, which leads to a change in the ethnic composition of the country. These changes are particularly noticeable in the northern regions of Kazakhstan. The article provides a comprehensive analysis of the ethnic composition of the population and interethnic relations during the Soviet period on the territory of Ualikhanov district, which is located in the South-Eastern part of Northern Kazakhstan region of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The work is based on clerical documents, data from thematic interviews and media materials.
