Abstract:
This work is devoted to the study of modern migration processes in the Russian Federation from the point of view of their political and legal regulation. The authors examine the main trends of population migration within the country, the impact of political decisions and legal acts on the migration situation, as well as the role of the state in regulating migration flows. Special attention is paid to the issues of adaptation and integration of migrants into Russian society, and the role of state institutions is evaluated, as well as their effectiveness in resolving possible potential conflicts. The purpose of the study is to identify the key problems of Russia’s current migration policy, assess the effectiveness of existing legal mechanisms, and propose improvements to the approaches to managing migration processes. The study is based on the analysis of statistical data, regulatory documents, and scientific literature on migration issues. The work is of interest to scientists studying migration processes, government officials making decisions on migration regulation, and the general public interested in understanding the changes taking place in Russian society.
