Abstract

Globalism is a neoliberally influenced focus on world markets and the knowledge economy particularly from the perspective of transnational economic entities. Nationalism concentrates on promoting the country as an entity distinct and special among other countries. When combined, as in Kazakhstan’s case, the two perspectives constitute a paradox. This paper explores Kazakhstan’s paradoxical strategy of using success globally to enhance regard nationally. The roles of language and higher education are discussed in pursuing this strategy. The commentary extends a previous qualitative study of the speeches and strategic plans of Nursultan Nazarbayev, Kazakhstan’s primary post-Soviet architect and President, from Kazakhstan’s independence in 1991 to Nazarbayev’s stepping down in 2019. Current events in the region, such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine, are included in the discussion.

哈萨克斯坦的民族主义全球主义:矛盾、语言和高等教育
全球主义是受新自由主义影响而形成的,主要从跨国经济实体的角度关注世界市场和知识经济。民族主义则侧重于将国家作为一个在其他国家中与众不同的特殊实体加以宣传。这两种观点结合在一起,就像哈萨克斯坦的情况一样,构成了一种悖论。本文探讨了哈萨克斯坦利用在全球范围内取得的成功来加强对本国的重视这一自相矛盾的战略。本文讨论了语言和高等教育在这一战略中的作用。这篇评论扩展了之前对哈萨克斯坦后苏联时期的主要设计师和总统努尔苏丹-纳扎尔巴耶夫(Nursultan Nazarbayev)从1991年哈萨克斯坦独立到2019年纳扎尔巴耶夫卸任期间的演讲和战略计划的定性研究。讨论还包括该地区当前发生的事件,如俄罗斯入侵乌克兰。
