Abstract

In July 2021, the National Security Strategy was adopted. And in September 2021 The President of the Russian Federation set a task: to achieve positive dynamics of the population of the Russian Federation by the end of 2024, in connection with which the tasks of the demographic policy of the Russian Federation were adjusted by order of the Government of the Russian Federation. What is the relationship between the national security of the Russian Federation and the integration of interstate migrants for permanent residence? There is an urgent need for a theoretical understanding of the tasks of the migration policy of the Russian Federation in the previously adopted Concepts of migration policy, raising the question of the practical tasks of integrating interstate migrants into permanent residence, who are directly involved in the formation of the Russian population, and, accordingly, the main hopes are placed on them for the real fulfillment of the task set before the Government of the Russian Federation by President Vladimir Putin. The strategy actually approved the inseparable dependence of the state and national security of the Russian Federation on the processes of interstate migration of the population, as an integral part of the socio-economic development of the country. What is necessary to solve the task of achieving a positive trend in the number of Russians by the end of 2024? Can temporary labor migration become a resource for replenishing the number of citizens of the country? What should be done by the state so that a simple quantitative approach to solving such an important issue as admission to citizenship does not become a threat to national security? What integration measures on the part of the state are necessary for this? Here are the main research questions of this article. The shortage of labor resources and their qualifications are the main challenges for the economy of modern developed world economies. Migration of labor and human resources is the only resource for its replenishment. That is why the integration of migrants is a determining factor for the preservation and growth of developed world economies, including the Russian Federation. The author suggests and justifies the need for an individual approach to solving the problem of management, legislative regulation and control over the course of integration – the introduction of an instrument of integration contracts based on social contracts already introduced in the Russian Federation, as the only way to effective integration of migrants locally with the participation of municipal authorities, where both the state level of management and self-government are combined, and where it directly occurs.
