Abstract:
Contemporary migration processes, characterized by significant intensity in the context of globalization, deepening economic inequality, and intensifying political conflicts, have highlighted the importance of studying recipient states as key factors in shaping migration policy. A recipient state is a country with a predominant direction of migration flows and a positive migration balance over a long period. However, this status is not static and can change depending on the economic situation, political situation, and demographic trends. The global context for the formation of recipient countries is determined, first and foremost, by economic disparities between developed and developing countries, demographic imbalances, and geopolitical transformations. Globalization processes contribute to the intensification of migration flows through the development of transport and communication networks, but simultaneously exacerbate the uneven development of various regions of the world. Key characteristics of recipient countries include a high level of economic development, political stability, a well-developed social security system, and demographic factors – the aging population trend in developed countries, creating a need to attract labor from abroad.
