Abstract


This paper examines the role of Islam in public life following the active re-Islamization of the Kazakh society in the beginning of the 1990s. The author studies Muslim organizations at local and republican levels, namely the Spiritual Board of Kazakhstan’s Muslims and the Association of Kazakhstan’s Pilgrims (Hajjis). The focus is made on local particularities of a “new religious cultural space” in the polity during the last 10 or 15 years.
