Migration atlas of the Russian Federation 2022

The article is a review of the Migration Atlas of the Russian Federation prepared by a team of authors under the scientific editorship of S.V. Ryazantsev (Moscow: ITD “Perspektiva”, 2022. 180 p.). The atlas is a result of the three-year research project “The impact of immigration on the ethnic-demographic processes in the Russian Federation and approaches to improving the migration policy concerning the integration of immigrants into the Russian society”. The authors use the results of the migration and cartographic studies to present in an accessible visual form the migrations of the Russian population since the collapse of the USSR to the present. The authors focus on the directions, scale, social-demographic structure and ethnic features of the Russian migrations, including in the regional perspective. The atlas is both a source of information on some rarely studied aspects of migration and a successful presentation of the already known data in a systematic form. The atlas will be useful for different readers - civil servants, social workers, scholars, teachers and students, because the authors succeeded in presenting the migration data in an accessible and interesting form for both experienced researchers of migration and those who just start their studies in this field.
