The purpose of the study is to uncover the specifics of the importance of religion in today’s political system of Kazakhstan. The leading research methods used to address this issue include analysis, synthesis, deduction, induction, modelling, and the method of generalisation. The democratisation of political processes has led to the creation of favourable conditions for the spread and revival of religious values. Legal mechanisms have emerged to regulate state-religious relations and prevent conflicts and destructive processes detrimental to society. Religious organisations have become active participants not only in the religious sphere but also in the social, cultural, and political aspects of society. Therefore, this paper addresses current issues related to defining the role of religion in the modern world. To achieve the purpose of the study, key questions were addressed, including those related to the existing innovations in the political and religious systems, the significance of the religious aspect in public life, and the modernised principles of interaction between religious and political aspects. The main areas of the study were determined by the insufficient theoretical and methodological developments and the growing importance of the subject. There is a lack of existing research on the topic, which is justified by the conducted thorough literature review. The paper formulated its own conclusions while considering publications by other specialists in this field. The study also modelled the areas for the further development of the religious system. Materials from European experts were examined, allowing for a comprehensive consideration of the significance of religion in the political system under modern conditions. As a result of the study, key features of religion in the modern world were identified. The materials in the study have practical value and can be used in the organisational and economic support of Kazakhstan’s political system.
