The article examines the concept of Stalinist stereotypes, first of all, in order to understand the causes and consequences of repressive measures carried out by the state against various categories of the people of Kazakhstan. It looks particularly at the Poles on the basis of documents and materials introduced into scientific circulation, identified in the archives of Kazakhstan and Russia. The study of social and household structures of repressed ethnic groups allows the tracing of the role of special settlers in creating a powerful industrial potential of the country in remote areas with harsh climatic conditions. Particularly interesting is the question of the work of state authorities to create conditions for the life of special settlers in special settlements, In summary, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of the repressive measures taken by the state during the Stalinist era in Kazakhstan, particularly concerning the Poles, and their implications for the industrial and social development of the region. It also highlights the governments role in managing and providing for special settlers, as well as legal challenges they faced.
