The history and development of Kazakh
statehood, from its origins to the present day, were topics of discussion among
scientists and experts from Central Asia and the Turkic world in Astana. An
international conference was held at the Eurasian National University (ENU), featuring
a collection of studies by renowned historian Satai Syzdykov. Participants
noted that the professor’s extensive research focuses on the chronicles and
culture of the Karluk and Karakhanid states, foundational in shaping Kazakh
statehood. The scholars’ reports provide a scientific basis for understanding
the centuries-old evolution of this history. They can also serve as a valuable
reference for further in-depth studies of the history of Kazakhstan and other
countries within the Turkic world.
«Historians have an important task – uncovering
the details of our rich history. Our President supports integration processes
in Central Asia, which encompass not only political and economic cooperation
but also the advancement of scientific and technical relations. This has led to
an unprecedented level of collaboration among Central Asian scholars, driven by
a model of scientific cooperation, which enables researchers to delve deeper
into history,» said Baubek Somzhurek, director of the ENU Higher School of
Education.
«This region encourages us to initiate joint
projects in the future and explore new, unknown pages. The participation of
scientists from the Central Asian states and other countries, along with their
informative reports and articles, will greatly contribute to uncovering
previously unexplored aspects of our history,» noted Rakhmail Safarov,
researcher at the Tajik National University.
