Abstract
By 1999, the economic transition from centrally planned economies has already developed its own history and specifics, and the 22 countries of the world which are undergoing substantial economic changes have each pursued different paths. The development of market reforms has differed between cases, and has given scholars the basis for major arguments regarding the evaluation of the process. In this chapter, I will concentrate on two cases of transition, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, the largest Central Asian economies, and their development of new institutional and market reforms.
