Abstract

The article summarises the sociological data of empirical measurements conducted in Russia during 2012~2019 on the issue of collective perceptions of Russians regarding labour migrants, and presents the results of the author’s 2019 sociological survey. A comparative analysis of publications and experimental data on the topic allows us to conclude that the problems of adaptation and integration of migrants into the accepted multi-ethnic space of Russia at the present stage are studied comprehensively. Based on the author’s empirical research, it is noted that Russians recognise the contribution of migrants to the country’s economy by filling the shortage of workers in unattractive/low-paid jobs. Still, the attitude towards labour migrants remains wary for several reasons, the main of which are the low level of newcomers education, unwillingness to get acquainted with the language and culture of the host society, as well as the negative image of migrants formed in the media.
