Factors Influencing Kazakhstani Youth’s Perception of Corruption and how it Demonstrates their Moral Development
Tavsif:
Ideally, people take responsibility for corruption at all levels. Experts argue that state policies shape public attitudes and future behavior (Begovic, 2005). In reality, sarcastic and negative views on corruption dominate social media and news. People’s comprehension of corruption is shaped by their moral values and principles and affects their future corruption-related crime behavior (Enste & Heldman, 2017). This highlights the need to study both motives and the moral beliefs behind corruption.
Abstrakt:
Corruption in Kazakhstan, rooted in Soviet history, remains a major issue. This study explores factors shaping youth attitudes toward corruption and how these reflect the nation’s moral development. Using an inductive, mixed-methods approach, it includes a random-sample survey and semi-structured interviews with NIS PhM Astana students (grades 9–12). Findings show corruption is normalized, with key causes being peer/superior pressure and bureaucratic inefficiency. Youth often feel hopeless, but media influence is strong. Participants appear to be at the 3rd–4th stages of moral development. Suggested reforms include strengthening media freedom and reforming courts and police. Limitations include a narrow sample. Future studies should expand across more regions and schools to inform effective anti-corruption education and democratic reforms.
