STRATEGIES OF DIASPORA ORGANIZATIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF ADAPTATION OF CHILDREN FROM MIGRANT FAMILIES

Abstract

The article deals with the activities of Diaspora organizations as a potential subject of adaptation of children from migrant families in the Russian socio-cultural environment. The work is based on the materials of Diaspora organizations and schools with ethno-cultural component. Migration strategies are correlated with the four main models of migration policy – assimilation, segregation, marginalization and integration. According to the authors ' findings, the priority for Diaspora organizations is to establish the preservation of the ethnic identity of migrant children, rather than their adaptation to the Russian civil society. There is also a priority orientation to the States of immigration departure in educational and educational work with young people, while the orientation to the Russian Federation is secondary, and in some cases – the attitude to it is built through latent hostility. The authors associate the way out of the conflict with the integration model of migration policy, which implies the formation of a two-level identity system for migrants. Despite the obvious role potential of Diaspora organizations in the adaptation of migrant children as an independent research problem, this topic has not been directly raised in the national scientific literature, which necessitates scientific work in this area.
