abstract: 'Several post-Soviet states have introduced indigenization policies to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
improve the relative economic, political or social position of formerly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disadvantaged populations. Using one example of such policies -
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``Kazakhization{''''} in Kazakhstan - we investigate their impact on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
comparative earnings of two directly affected groups, ethnic Kazakhs and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ethnic Russians. Oaxaca decompositions show that Kazakhs are better
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
endowed with income generating characteristics but receive lower returns
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to these characteristics than Russians. The second effect dominates and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kazakhs have comparatively lower average living standards. While
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``Kazakhization{''''} may have been successful in some sense it appears to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
also have induced ethnic Russians to move into jobs that (at least in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
monetary terms) are superior now to those held by Kazakhs. Journal of
