Kazakhstan Civil Service Ethics Survey and SWOT/PEST Diagnostics

Kazakhstan residents and civil servants participated in a mixed-methods study examining institutional ethics. The empirical base includes a national survey of 525 residents and a targeted civil-service sample of 54 managers and employees. The study, authored by Binur Taitorina and published in April 2026, proposes modernization modules for ethical culture.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the gap between normative ethics and actual practices based on survey and questionnaire data.
• Evaluating strengths and weaknesses of ethical culture based on SWOT analysis results.
• Identifying external drivers for modernization based on PEST analysis of political, economic, social, and technological factors.
• Designing measurable modernization modules (e.g., E-KPI, SLA, digital ethics audits) based on the proposed model.

Strengths

• Includes a national survey with 525 respondents covering all macro-regions.
• Contains a targeted expert sample of 54 civil servants (19 managers, 35 non-managerial employees).
• Analyzes multiple data sources: survey, questionnaire, SWOT/PEST elicitations, and institutional analysis.

Limitations

• The civil-service expert sample is modest (n=54), limiting external validity.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
