Abstract
The article is devoted to the development of international labor migration during the Russian war against Ukraine. The purpose of the study is to determine the essence and features of international labor migration on the basis of the analysis of Ukrainian and foreign literary sources, and its tasks are to identify internal and external factors in the formation of Ukraine's migration potential; conducting of the classification of international labor migration; characteristics of changes that occur in international labor migration during the war. The study found that international labor migration occupies a prominent place in the system of international economic relations as a barometer that characterizes the level of international division of labor, trends in demographic development, socio-economic and political situation of donor countries and recipient countries of labor. It has been shown that during the war, both the number of external labor migrants and forced migrants increased significantly, and a large part of the civilian population became refugees who were forced to seek asylum in European countries. There have been some changes in the geography of external migration processes, namely their reorientation from the Russian vector to the European one. The number of migrant workers and refugees from regions affected by active hostilities has increased. However, the war does not significantly affect the cyclical nature of Ukrainian labor migration. As before, the predominant type of external labor migration are short-term departures outside Ukraine. At the same time, one should expect an increase in the irreversibility of the movement of educational migrants, which poses certain threats to national security, as it significantly complicates the demographic situation in the country and destroys the Ukrainian labor market. Given the difficult socio-economic and demographic situation in Ukraine, which worsened during the war, solving existing problems in the field of external labor migration requires intensification of state migration policy in its main areas in particular the creation of decent living conditions in the postwar period, restoration of the national economy and infrastructure of the country. The most relevant areas of further research on this issue are the deepening of the theoretical foundations of the study of migration as a phenomenon and process, as well as the development of modern mechanisms for its regulation.
