Download or read book Migrant Workers in Russia written by Anna-Liisa Heusala and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia has a very large pool of economic migrants, up to 25% of the workforce according to some estimates. Although many migrants, many from former Soviet countries which are now independent, entered Russia legally, they frequently face bureaucratic obstacles to legal employment and Russian citizenship, factors which have led to a very large “shadow economy”. This book presents a comprehensive examination of migrant labour in Russia. It describes the nature of migrant labour, explores the shadow economy and its unfortunate consequences, and discusses the rise of popular sentiment against migrants and the likely impact. The book also sets the Russian experiences of migrant labour in context, comparing the situation in Russia with that in other countries with significant migrant labour workforces.

Download or read book Post Soviet Migration and Diasporas written by Milana V. Nikolko and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-20 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the relationship between post-Soviet societies in transition and the increasingly important role of their diaspora. It analyses processes of identity transformation in post-Soviet space and beyond, using macro- and micro-level perspectives and interdisciplinary approaches combining field-based and ethnographic research. The authors demonstrate that post-Soviet diaspora are just at the beginning of the process of identity formation and formalization. They do this by examining the challenges, encounters and practices of Ukrainians and Russians living abroad in Western and Southern Europe, Canada and Turkey, as well as those of migrants, expellees and returnees living in the conflict zones of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Moldova. Key questions on how diaspora can be better engaged to support development, foreign policy and economic policies in post-Soviet societies are both raised and answered. Russia’s transformative and important role in shaping post-Soviet diaspora interests and engagement is also considered. This edited collection will appeal to students and scholars of diaspora, post-Soviet politics and migration, and economic and political development.
Download or read book Regional Migration Report written by Anna Di Bartolomeo and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian Federation has become one of the most important destinations for immigration in the world. From 1991 to 2013, 10.2 million international migrants have entered Russia by changing their place of permanent residence. But it is also a very particular case of a destination country in which two types of flows have shaped the character of immigration. Massive waves of Russians returning to their ancestral (or actual) motherland from other republics dominated throughout the 1990s, diminishing in 2000s. At the same time, the growing Russian economy started to attract immigrant workers from other parts of the post-Soviet space, especially from less developed central Asian countries, namely Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Indeed, in the 2000s, their percentage of total immigrant flows rose from 24.4% (2000-2004) to 33.5% (2005-2009) and skyrocketed at 40.4% in 2010-2013. Nowadays, they are the main working migrant group, whose presence is contested on cultural grounds. For instance, in 2010, they were granted 54.8% of total work permits. The Eurasian migration system is thus a central theme for migration research in the region. Russia{OCLCbr#D0}’s ambiguous migration policy has shaped the inflows. Open borders for visitors from other Commonwealth of Independent States have made it easier for migrants to enter Russia. A lack of transparent and flexible labour migration policy has pushed a major portion of them into undeclared work. Special rules for some groups, however, help to legalize the status quo (e.g. access to the labour market for Belarusians or facilitated acquisition of citizenship for Kirgiz). Only recently has the government started elaborating migration policy to take into account labour market needs (facilitation of legal employment, incentives for highly skilled). The impact of the new approach has yet to be felt, however. In the following report, we propose a deep comparative analysis of the place of Russia and Kazakhstan (Russia{OCLCbr#D0}’s emerging economic rival) in the Eurasian migration system. The analysis is accompanied by an analysis of data collection in Russia and the development of Russia{OCLCbr#D0}’s migration policy.
Download or read book International Organisations and the Politics of Migration written by Martin Geiger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last two decades, international migration has become a global issue. It is perceived as an ongoing challenge for governments, as well as an issue that is deeply related to other international challenges, such as development, climate change, security and public health. In this context, international organisations have become influential in the way in which migration is thought about and governed. They play an important role, steering states’ behaviour and intervening on the ground, through the design and implementation of immigration policy. International organisations tend to promote a positive view of migration, extolling its benefits for all parties. There often exists a contrast between this positivity and the public and political scepticism regularly expressed in Western receiving countries. According to their advocates, international organizations have the potential to improve the governance of migration, by supporting cooperation between states and promoting balanced and comprehensive political strategies. However their detractors criticise them for aligning themselves with the interests of receiving states and for their political agenda. This book brings together analytical and empirical contributions that explore the role of international organisations in migration politics worldwide. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies.
Download or read book Migrant Resettlement in the Russian Federation written by Moya Flynn and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2004-08-26 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book offers a unique insight into the individual and collective experiences of movement and resettlement among Russian migrants 'returning' to the Russian Federation over the period 1991–2002. Moya Flynn uses different levels of analysis (local, regional, national and global) to open up fresh perspectives on the nature of the Russian migration regime and government migration policy. The book offers the first in-depth examination of non-governmental development in the area of migration in post-Soviet Russia and provides new understandings of the experience of migration and resettlement at the individual level, specifically through an exploration of understandings of 'home' and 'homeland' and a focus on the role of migrant networks.

Download or read book International Migration and Rural Areas written by Dr Birgit Jentsch and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-12-28 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While immigrants are still predominantly choosing urban areas to locate to, there is now increasing evidence of immigration to rural areas which poses its own challenges for those relocating, from the scarcity of high quality jobs to the provision of public and private services. Addressing the shortcomings in current research, this book employs an innovative approach by exploring this relationship from a cross-national, comparative, global perspective. It draws lessons from case studies across a range of geographical and political contexts, including Canada, the USA, Ireland, Scotland, Greece and Russia. Bringing together migration experts from a range of academic disciplines, International Migration and Rural Areas contributes to conceptual developments and also identifies policy concerns which can be pursued at national, sub-national and supra-national levels. As such, it will appeal to policy makers, as well as scholars across a range of disciplines, including geography, politics, demography, social policy, sociology and anthropology.

Download or read book Essays on International Migration in the Former Soviet Union written by Mirzobobo Yormirzoev and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation includes three essays that examine international migration in the former Soviet Union. Chapter 2 uses an endogenous growth model to explore the impact of remittances on growth in FSU countries. In this chapter, we model how output per capita, investment and consumption patterns is affected by external private financial inflows. Chapter 3 examines determinants of migratory flows from FSU republics to Russia. The size and composition of migratory flows to Russia are unique in the sense that the vast majority of migrants come from the region. We apply a gravity model to investigate factors that affect people's decision to migrate. The empirical findings of these chapters are based upon using relevant macro -level data from the World Bank Online Indicators, EBRD Transition Reports and some indicators from the Russian Federal Statistics Agency. In the last chapter, we look at factors that affect labor migration from Tajikistan to Russia. The World Bank regularly organizes household surveys in some developing and emerging countries and data on international migration have been the primary source for the last part of the thesis.
