https://doi.org/10.47703/ejebs.v68i2.375
Abstract
This study conducts a comparative analysis of the socio-cultural environments across the regions of Kazakhstan, focusing on indicators of cultural infrastructure. The authors focus on considering the indicators of the cultural infrastructure of the regions. Utilizing data from the Bureau of National Statistics of the Republic of Kazakhstan, this research explores the dynamics and structural characteristics of these indicators from 1995 to 2022. The authors proposed using the multidimensional comparative analysis method to obtain a comprehensive rating assessment of the sociocultural environment of the regions. The central place in the study is the determination of regional ratings, reflecting the relative position of each region based on the development of its socio-cultural environment. These rankings offer valuable information to policymakers, stakeholders, and researchers alike, enabling informed decisions and targeted interventions to promote balanced socio-cultural progress across Kazakhstan. This study contributes to the understanding of the socio-cultural development of Kazakhstan by providing a detailed analysis of regional differences and the dynamics of changes in their leading indicators. The author's approach to assessing the development of the socio-cultural environment of the regions of Kazakhstan proposed in the article can be considered by researchers in this field as a convenient and reliable analysis tool. The results of the study emphasize the importance of a multidimensional approach to assessing and solving socio-cultural problems and open up opportunities for an inclusive approach in developing a strategy for the development of the socio-cultural environment of the regions of Kazakhstan.
