During the last 2-3 years, the integration (or rather non-integration)
of migrants has become the burning issue of Russian migration. The
reason has its roots in the growth of inter-ethnic tension and
manifestations of open nationalism, which are in turn the result of
people’s wider discontent with social inequality and administrative
dereliction combined with a crisis in national self-identification.
Ineffective migration management, resulting in wide-scale irregular
migration, exasperates Russian society and fuels social strain.
