| Zusammenfassung: | The liberal pattern in Islam displayed itself at different points in the history of Kazakhstan through quasi state models of political organization, governance networks, multiethnic and multireligious societies, individual freedoms, and syncretic essence of Islam in the local culture. This paper examines the role of liberal pattern in the evolution of Islam in Kazakhstan based on historical and antropological analysis to call into question the state’s ongoing efforts to plant the authoritarian interpretation of Islam epitomized in the so-called Hanafi project. The notion of the Hanafi project is offered as the antithesis to classical Islamic Hanafi School, which is manipulated by the state to mask the imposition of the secular national policy in the religious domain. |
