Abstract

The burning issues in Russian society, such as population aging and labor shortages, require leveling by searching for state policy tools. The study aims to determine migration patterns in Russia from 2015 to 2021, as well as to form a set of state policy measures for maintaining migration growth as a tool to achieve socio-economic and demographic effects for the national economy. The objectives of the study are to analyze migration processes in 2011‒2021, classify the factors causing the imbalance in migration processes in Russia, and substantiate measures to maintain migration growth in Russia amid increasing socio-economic and political instability. The study was conducted using the following methods: economic analysis, comparative analysis, graph method, systematization, and systematic approach. The article provides a comprehensive analysis of the development of migration processes in Russia from 2011 to 2021, which emphasizes the importance of managing migration processes in addressing burning issues in Russian society. The dynamics of the migration growth of the Russian population over a ten-year period have been studied, the points of highest decline have been identified, and the causes for their existence have been revealed. The features of international migration are investigated. It is concluded that the potential of foreign migration movements to fill the labor shortage in Russia is decreasing. Positive and negative trends in the domestic population movement in Russia have been identified. The vectors of migration process management are substantiated in order to eliminate the existing issues in terms of demography, labor market functioning, and the rise in social conflict. The study’s findings lead to the conclusion that it is necessary to maintain the population migration growth, especially during times of increasing political tension, as well as to attract qualified specialists to Russia to address the issues of natural population loss and to fill the labor shortage.
