The process of globalization and socio-economic changes at the present stage have a significant impact on the system of political values of states and societies. Especially for the countries of the post-Soviet space, the transformation of political culture and value orientations has become an urgent object of study. The political values of Kazakhstan's society have also undergone significant changes in recent decades and are undergoing a process of adaptation to a new political reality.

         This article analyzes the transformation of the system of political values in Kazakhstan and the level of civic activity. The study used the results of the World Values Survey (WVS) social surveys conducted in 2011 and 2018 and the Friedrich Ebert Foundation. Based on the conceptual methodology of Ronald Inglhart, changes in the political values of Kazakhstanis and their manifestations in society were evaluated. The results of the study show the conservative nature of political values in Kazakhstan's society, where family values, hard work and social justice prevail. Although the indicators of political activity are low, in recent years there has been a development of online petitions and forms of civic participation. The fight against corruption and economic growth remains the main priorities for the population.
