REASONS AND VALUE MOTIVATIONS OF MIGRANTS FROM MOLDOVA TO RUSSIA AND EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES
In the article, the authors consider the main reasons and value motivations of migrants from Moldova to the Russian Federation and European Union countries. It is noted that today in the world, countries are classified into two types: «peripheral states», with an undeveloped economy and culture, to which the Republic of Moldova belongs, and «leading states» or countries where migrants try to move. Among the main causes of migration, the authors highlight such problems in the country as poverty, lack of jobs in the country of origin of migrants, unstable political situation and corruption at the state level, the desire to improve the quality and standard of living, the will of migrants to move to their relatives or to study in another country. The values of people directly depend of the economy of the country in which they live. Only when they gain material wealth, migrants begin to think about spiritual values.
