The article presents the results of a study conducted to identify one of the deep problems of family policy in the Republic of Kazakhstan – family conflicts.
On the example of representatives of the most conservative ethnic groups living in Kazakhstan, it is described that traditional mechanisms for resolving family conflicts are losing their popularity in society in favor of modern mechanisms based on the law. As a result, this fact is the cause of an increasing number of divorces in the Kazakh society.
A reference analysis, focus group studies and in-depth interviews were used as methodological tools for the study traditional ways for resolving family conflicts.
