- Title
Music Videos and National Identity in Post-Soviet Kazakhstan.
- Authors
Ifert Johnson, Danette
- Abstract
Media exert a pervasive influence on personal and national identity. Kazakh independence in 1991 necessitated forming national identity where only limited common identity existed previously. This paper examines the socio-political context of Kazakhstan, explores how images in Kazakh music videos assist in conveying national identity, and addresses ongoing challenges that shape how Kazakh identity continues to develop.
