The paper presents the basic conceptual approaches of the leading scientific schools and academic institutions regarding the genesis of the Kazakh state, the role and contribution to the formation of Kazakh Khanate’s governance institutions made by the leading statesmen of different historical periods. The author analyzes the various historical reconstruction schemes of the political and ethnic history of Dasht-i- Kipchak’s great geo-political space. One of the first schemes created by the famous Russian orientalist V.V Velyaminov-Zernov (1830–1904) described in his paper "Study on Kasymov kings and princes" is also subjected to analysis in the article. It is noteworthy that this paper has not lost its significance in the present time. The source basis for V.V Velyaminov-Zernov’s research was made up not only by the data of the Russian chronicles, but also by such prominent XVI – XVIII century works as "Babyr-Nama", "Khabib as-siyar", "Zhakhan-ara", "Tarikh-i-Rashidi", "Shaibani-Nama", "Zhamikh at-tavarikh", "Tarikh-i-Khaidari", "Tarikh-i-Alamarayi Abbasi", "Abdallakh-Nama", "Shadzhara-iy Turk" that were written in Persian, Chagatai, Turkic languages, and the researcher V.V Velyaminov-Zernov could read them in the original as he had had a perfect command of these languages. Investigation of the main stages of the formation of the Kazakh ethnic group, the study of the complex consolidation processes that have taken place after the Mongol conquest, examination of the peculiarities of Turkization of the Mongolian ethnic component are the core issues discussed in the article. Besides, the article studies the issue of tribal nobility formation, the impact of the Chengizids on this process, the origin of the ethnonym "Kazakh" that has united the most numerous and powerful tribal alliances of Dasht-i-Kipchak.
