One primary document for Kazakhstan is “Global DeveloEconomic Prospects: Europe and Central Asia” this article explained how economy is affecting each country, and what it is expected to do to each country. Kazakhstan is one of the stronger countries in this region but this article states that the rebound of Kazakhstan’s economy could turn out to be weak. The affects and expected out comes of a country’s economy effects global interdependence. This effects global interdependence because if you know the countries that posses a strong economy, or are predicted to become a strong economy your country could learn to turn to them. You could turn to them for help if you are a weak economic country, or if you are a strong economic economy you could befriend them hoping to team up with them. Teaming up with another strong country could result in helping other poverty stricken countries to become more advanced economically. That is why knowing your country’s and other countries expected and current economic standings effects global interdependent. [|Global DeveloEconomic Prospects: Europe and Central Asia]

This article called “How Russia Affects the Neighborhood: Trade, Financial, and Remittance Channels” is about how Russia affects many of the countries around it such as Kazakhstan. Russia’s economic links have been affecting the countries surrounding them since the 1998 crisis; now the affects seem to be more from the Remittance Channels though. In this article it states that Kazakhstan is one of the countries that have been influenced by Russia, but more from Kazakhstan’s banks’ exposure to Russia’s assets. This shows global interdependence, but on a closer scale. When a country affects another country it is considered global interdependence, well here Russia is only affecting countries closely surrounding it. This means that global interdependence can take place between countries thousands of miles apart, or just a few hundreds of miles apart.

“Canada-Kazakhstan Relations” is an article about Canada and Kazakhstan’s relationship. They have a very strong and deep relationship, and in the article it stated that Kazakhstan is represented in Canada and Canada is represented in Kazakhstan. This has to do with global interdependence because both countries can look to each other for help, and this is easy to do considering they have representation in each other’s countries.

In this article “U.S. - Central Asia Relations 2010” it talks about the US and Central Asia relationships, including Kazakhstan. The US wants to commit to deeper relationships with Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries. In the article it states that the US is trying to help these countries with their expanded trade, human rights, and promoting strong relationships with other countries. The US is holding up a good standard of global interdependence because they are helping other countries become better, and stronger. Also it is good that the US is trying to promote having strong relationships with other countries, this will improve global interdependence. [|U.S. - Central Asia Relations 2010]

The article “China-Kazakhstan relations grow stronger” is about China and Kazakhstan; over the years China and Kazakhstan’s relationship has grown deeper and deeper. The two countries have great trade and economic ties, and they can compromise and agree on most subjects. In the article it states that China and Kazakhstan have a good relationship, which makes controlling the boarders between their countries easier. This article helped me realize that a global relation in a far away country is good, but global relations between countries that share boarders could be even better. This is because if you have a good relationship with the country next to you controlling the boarders will get that much easier. Global interdependence can take place anywhere in the world, but maybe the country right next to you could be the one you want to depend on. [| China-Kazakhstan relations grow stronger]
