EMIGRATION FROM RUSSIA ACCORDING TO NATIONAL STATISTICS
Abstract
In this article using statistical methods and data from national statistics, is analyzed and studied emigration of Russian citizens abroad for permanent residence. The authors paid a lot of attention to major modern emigration trends, structure of the upstream and main destinations. The study showed that the data of official Russian statistics make it possible to assess the composition of outmigrants: structure by sex and age, education, citizenship, reasons for departure in terms of the related questions, regional specificities of migration, its volume and direction. However, statistical observation of emigration covers only a part of those leaving for permanent residence. Furthermore, on the basis of data from Rosstat, the authors conclude that relatively high emigration indicators are observed in the border regions, as well as in constituent entities with positive macroeconomic indicators. Economic and statistical analysis supports the hypothesis that minimal emigration intensity indicators presented in certain regions, for example, in republics of the North Caucasus, are not common for migration in Russia in general.
