Description
When Kazakhstan’s Nursultan Nazarbayev resigned from the office of the presidency in March 2019, it surprised observers and Kazakhstanis alike. Was this a new form of “authoritarian succession” that others in Eurasia might emulate? Would Kazakhstan’s role in the region shift? What were the prospects for dynastic succession? In this roundtable, we explore what a dictator’s resignation might mean.
