PUBL.- Ed Schatz, Modern Clan Politics: The Power of "Blood" in Kazakhstan

In a new book, "Modern Clan Politics: The Power of 'Blood' in Kazakhstan
and Beyond," (University of Washington Press), Edward Schatz explores
kin-based clan divisions in the post-Soviet state of Kazakhstan,
demonstrating that, contrary to popular belief, kinship divisions do not
fade from political life under modernity.
