    PROGRESS TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR TOURISM AND ECONOMIC GROWTH
    (The Kazakh National University Named After Al -Farabi and Suleyman Demirel University, 2008) Oskenbayev Yessengali
    Since the late 1980s, sustainable developmen bas become a buzzword in development studies in general and in tourism research in particular. However, a literature review led the author of this paper to the belief that the "muddy pool" (Harrison, 1996) of debate on sustainable tourism is patchy, disjointed and at times flawed. Indeed, "little appears to have been written, in depth, on the meaning and implications of sustainable tourism development" (Hunter&Green, 1995:69).Most research had advanced little beyond the stage of formulating and discussing various principles and assumptions' (Komilis, 1994:65); while the case studies which explore the ways of applying sustainable principles to practice, often through small eco- or alternative tourism projects, provide at best a micro solution to what is essentially a macro problem (Wheeller, 1991: 93).

    Fiscal Decentralization and Economic Growth
    (2023) Zhanabay M.
    This article proposes a method for assessing the effects of fiscal decentralization on economic growth in Kazakhstan. The relationship between the proper level of fiscal decentralization and economic growth for 14 regions and three cities of republican significance in Kazakhstan from 2010 to 2020 was evaluated using panel data analysis. The results of this study suggest that fiscal decentralization has a negative and significant impact on gross regional product. The study found that both income and expenditure decentralization have a negative impact on economic growth, and that further fiscal decentralization currently has a negative impact on GRP growth. Given the premise that fiscal decentralization usually promotes local economic progress, this consistently significant and powerful result of our empirical analysis is surprising.

    TRADE REGULATIONS AND POLICIES IN KAZAKHSTAN
    (The Kazakh National University Named After Al -Farabi and Suleyman Demirel University, 2008) Imenova Raina
    Successful foreign trade is an important factor which has determined the economic growth over the last years. Favorable market environment, specifically high world prices for Kazakhstan's major export goods such as hydrocarbons, ferrous and non-ferrous metals led to increased volume of exports and, even to a greater extent, of export revenues making a substantial contribution to economic growth. Until now (at the moment economic achievements of Russia are becoming more and more evident) Kazakhstan used to be an indisputable leader among the former Soviet Republics in many aspects of economic system reform and macroeconomic parameters of development achieved as a result of this reform. However, economic growth is not an end in itself and the state should not aim to achieve it at any price. While developing an adequate policy of economic growth one must take into account a number of important factors.
