Abstract

Migration and citizenship are relevant to both science and practice. The research examines the migration and citizenship policy of the Russian Federation since the disintegration and collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 till present. The study determines the main milestones in migration and citizenship legislation and relevant solutions in the history of the New Russia (the Russian Federation) divided by the authors into two periods: from 1991 to 2000 and from 2000 to date. A novel approach is applied since no previous Russian and international research has investigated migration and citizenship problems in the context of jus soli and jus sanguinis. These are the basic international principles of the policy toward migration and citizenship. Having studied various Russian and international instruments, the authors identify that the Russian migration and citizenship policy violates jus soli and jus sanguinis in the period under review and should be brought into line with these principles.
