The Communist Party of Kazakhstan (QKP; Kazakh: Қазақстан Коммунистік партиясы, Qazaqstan Kommunistık Partiasy; Russian: Коммунистическая партия Казахстана, romanized: Kommunisticheskaya partiya Kazakhstana) was the ruling and sole legal political party in the Kazakh SSR.[1]

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.[2]

Post-Soviet restructuring

The 18th Congress of the Communist Party of Kazakhstan, held on September 7, 1991, decided to dissolve the party.[3] The Socialist Party was created on its basis.[4][5] Nursultan Nazarbayev, chairman of the party, resigned after the failure of the August putsch in Moscow.[6] Dissatisfied members of the old Communist Party recreated the Communist Party of Kazakhstan in October 1991 at the 19th Congress of the party.
