List of political parties in Kazakhstan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article lists political parties in Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan is a dominant-party state with Amanat in power. There are seven legal parties in Kazakhstan.[1] Political reforms towards Western-styled multi-party politics and electioneering have made easier for people to join a party.[2] To be a registered political party in Kazakhstan, membership of at least 20,000 persons is required.[3]
