Abstract

The article presents the results of a survey of the expert community on international issues in the framework of sociological monitoring of problems of transit migration, transit regions and migration policy of Russia, including in the context of security and Eurasian integration. The study was conducted in seven territories of the Russian border area, particularly in the Rostov, Orenburg, Murmansk, Pskov, and Altai regions, as well as in Moscow and Dagestan. The studied border areas of Russia are characterized by significant migration flows from neighboring countries. Most migrants come from Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine. The problem of adaptation and integration of migrants into host communities is becoming one of the most significant social tasks for both migrants and the local population. In addition, the importance of studying the forecast of regional national security, identifying conflicting determinants, the knowledge of which will allow to improve social control and management in the sphere of interethnic relations, is increasing. The article presents general and specific regional assessments of experts from host regions in significant areas of optimization of the relationship between migrants and regional communities. The basic directions of migration policy are presented, which require optimization in the context of ensuring social security and sustainable development of the border regions of Russia.
