Profile
Hi everyone! I’m Mukhamejan. I’m currently a master’s student majoring in International Relations as part of the Erasmus program IMCEERES. Since January 2022, I’ve been responsible for collecting and operationalizing data in Russian, Kazakh, and English. In July 2023, Jacob and I attended the annual research forum at Tsinghua University, where we presented our project, “Dispossessing Nazarbayev.” This work was later nominated as the best research paper.
I’m generally interested in informal networks and neopatrimonialism in politics. Specifically, I’m curious about calculating the capital of elite networks, as this provides an opportunity to predict how political and economic dynamics will behave in certain circumstances. Aside from my interests in social science, I enjoy reading about philosophy and endocrinology.
