1

The Communist Party of Kazakhstan (QKP;, Qazaqstan Kommunistık Partiasy) was the ruling and sole legal political party in the Kazakh SSR.

Origin

The Communist Party of Kazakhstan was founded 1936, when Kazakhstan was granted a Union Republic status within the Soviet Union. The Communist Party of Kazakhstan had been a branch of Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) until the dissolution of the Soviet Union. April 24, 1990 from Art. 6 of the Constitution of the Kazakh SSR, the provision on the monopoly of the Communist Party of Kazakhstan on power was excluded.

Post-Soviet restructuring

The 18th Congress of the Communist Party of Kazakhstan, held on September 7, 1991, decided to dissolve the party. The Socialist Party was created on its basis. Nursultan Nazarbayev, chairman of the party, resigned after the failure of the August putsch in Moscow. Dissatisfied members of the old Communist Party recreated the Communist Party of Kazakhstan in October 1991 at the 19th Congress of the party.
