Famine in Kazakhstan 1932–33

Large ethnic groups in Kazakhstan between 1897 and 1970. The number of Kazakhs (blue) and Ukrainians (yellow) fell between 1932 and 1933 due to the famine. Russians (red) and Uzbeks (purple) are also listed .

The famine in Kazakhstan of 1932–1933  was part of the famine in the Soviet Union  at that time, which hit Kazakhstan particularly badly. Around 1.5 million people died (around 38% of the then population), 1.3 million of them ethnic Kazakhs . Other estimates put around 2.0 to 2.3 million ethnic Kazakhs who died as a result of the famine. The remaining 200,000 victims were mostly ethnic Ukrainians .

The famine is known in Kazakhstan as the "Goloschtschokin Genocide " ( Kazakh : Голощекиндік геноцид). Filipp Issajewitsch Goloschtschokin  carried out the " Sovietization " of the country and was therefore made responsible for the famine.

Demographic Consequences

The famine made ethnic Kazakhs a minority in their settlement area. It wasn't until the 1990s that they became the largest ethnic group again. 60% of the population were Kazakhs before the famine, after which only 38%.
