Transnational migration spaces and a system of diasporas are created and developed in the context of globalisation. The self-identification of an ethnic group in destination is one of the facets of modern human mobility. The development of the Kazakh diasporas in Germany is a vivid example of self-identification. The study aims to examine the mechanism of establishment and development of the Kazakh diaspora in Germany. As part of the analysis of the Kazakh diaspora in Germany, a four-polar identification model was used. The study identifies the main causes and outcomes of the ethnic identification of the Kazakhs in Germany.
