Abstract
Examining museum narratives subjectively can enhance our understanding of political discourse formation. For this, the article aims to cover the events of industrialization in Kazakhstan as part of the modern historical and political discourse and collective memory, covered by the Kazakh regional museums. The basis of the scientific approach consists of different historical methods: the historical-comparative, the typological, the systematic, etc. The historical-comparative and historical-systemic methods were also used, which helped to determine the value of this topic in the general scientific discourse. This research presents the activities of the regional museums of Kazakhstan as a counterbalance to the Soviet narratives concerning the process of industrialization on the territory of Kazakhstan, which transmitted Soviet political myths to the domestic audience. The results of the study can be used further as material for political and socio-historical analysis.
