Purpose of research. The purpose of this article is to develop the author's interpretation of the nature of structural changes in the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan. To this end, the authors conclude that the structure of the economy as a complex system demonstrates the properties of complex systems, as well as the properties of the organization. The authors study the logical sequence of processes that determine structural adjustment in General, analyze the industry proportions in the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
Methodology. The article was written using the method of correlation and regression analysis. Data visualization and calculations were performed using the statistical data processing program R.
Əдіснамасы. The paper analyzes the structure of the economy, highlights the trends of structural changes in the period from 1990 to 2019. The most important is the calculation of coefficients of structural shifts based on the Gatev K., and Ryabtsev V. M. methodology and determining the most significant factors that affect the transformation of the structure of the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
Findings. The analysis showed that the structure of the economy is more typical for the economy of the fourth technological order, while the leading countries demonstrate the sixth technological order.
