Abstract
This article examines the problems of public administration and legal regulation of the status of forced migrants and their potential solutions. The research's methodological framework is based on an analysis of regulatory material (formal legal methods), a study of objective statistical indicators (statistical method), a study of foreign approaches to regulating the legal phenomena in question (comparative legal method), a study of phenomena and processes in dialectical unity (dialectical method), and forecasting the development of legal phenomena in the short and medium term (forecasting method). It also analyzes publications on this topic and formulates relevant conclusions and proposals for improving legal regulation in this area.
The article provides a general overview of public administration issues in the field of forced migration and examines the concept of legal status in forced migration, including refugee, temporary asylum, and political asylum status. Refugee and temporary asylum statuses are examined in the context of official statistical data, and proposals are made for improving legal regulation in this area. The issues of social adaptation and integration of forced migrants are examined and analyzed, the experience of foreign countries in this area is studied, and relevant proposals for improving legal regulation in this area are made. Based on an analysis of current judicial practice, the issues of protecting vulnerable categories of migrants, such as women and children, are examined, and proposals for improving legal regulation are made. Particular attention is paid to the need for a humanitarian focus in legal regulation in the area of forced migration, taking into account national interests. This article examines the problems facing the state in developing a differentiated management approach to addressing the protection of migrant women's rights. These challenges relate to the vulnerable social status of migrant women, challenges with social adaptation and integration, and the ineffectiveness of existing rights protection mechanisms. Measures to address these challenges are proposed.
