The Constitution as the main legal document against corruption
| Hits: 5259
The Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan is the basic law of our state, which has the highest legal force, direct effect and is applied throughout the territory of Kazakhstan. The Constitution is in the first place among the legislatively defined basic normative legal acts. The analysis of the norms of the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan convinces that all its key provisions are directly related to anti-corruption issues. Corruption negatively affects the political and civil institutions of the State and poses a serious threat to the future development of the country. The Constitution should be considered as a program, the main legal mechanism, the basis for the fight against corruption.
August 25, 2023 at 15.00 in the regional universal library. N. V. Gogol held a round table "Constitution as a basic Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan", dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the first Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan (28.01.1993).

Columbus Day in the USA is celebrated on the second Monday of October.
On October 12, 1492, the Spanish navigator Christopher Columbus landed in the New World - on this day, the expedition of Christopher Columbus reached the island of San Salvador in the Bahamas Archipelago, which was later taken as the official date of the discovery of America.
Although most other American countries celebrate Columbus Day on October 12, in the United States it is celebrated on the second Monday of October.
This event is quite controversial, because the settlement of Europeans in America led to the disappearance of the culture and history of many indigenous peoples of the mainland.
