Purpose of research. The article examines the human potential of the Russian Federation in the context of the established second wave of the demographic crisis. The article analyzes the state of the number, composition and structure of the population of the Russian Federation during the first (1992–2012) and second demographic crisis (2016 and up to the present), taking into account the factors of population reproduction (birth rate and mortality) and migration inflows to the country. Factors and causes of external migration with the CIS countries are identified, as they have been and remain the main donors for replenishing the population of the Russian Federation. On the basis of analytical indicators of dynamics and methods of statistical relationships, an assessment of external migration growth and its impact on the country's economy is carried out. Special attention is paid to measures taken at the state level to stabilize and improve migration problems.Materials and methods. The information base of the study is statistical data and analytical information on external migration flows, based on statistical surveys conducted in the country. The methodological basis of the research is represented by statistical methods of information analysis: comparative analysis, structural and dynamic analysis, analysis of the interrelationships of migration and economic indicators.Results. The article analyzes in detail the results of current events in the country during periods of demographic decline and population growth since 1992. Due to the demographic policy implemented in the country, as well as the peculiarities of the age and gender structure of the population, it is proved that the main component for population growth is still the migration inflow. Special attention is paid to external labor migration in recent years. The impact of migration growth on economic indicators (unemployment rate, real wages, index of physical volume of GDP) and the development of the economy as a whole are estimated. Also, on the scale of the State National Policy Strategy being implemented until 2025, state measures to stabilize and improve the situation in the field of migration policy are presented and analyzed.Conclusion. Due to the fact that migration policy is a defining component of demographic policy, which is currently one of the priorities of the state's development, it is advisable to regularly study external migration as one of the most important sources of replenishment of human capital and hence the development of the country's economy. Therefore, the government of the Russian Federation should pay special attention to measures to attract foreign highly qualified labor force in active working age; providing foreign students who have successfully completed their studies and defended their diplomas in Russian universities with the opportunity to find a job in our country in order to obtain Russian citizenship and create a family in Russia. As well as carrying out regular monitoring studies on adaptation of foreign citizens, taking into account regional peculiarities of development of economy of our country, because today in the conditions of demographic decline of the Russian population it is one of the main sources of economic development on the geopolitical level, as labor potential – a basis for national economic growth.

This paper makes a case for that declines in population size must be counteracted via a well-substantiated anti-depopulation policy. Russia’s current anti-depopulation policy has yet to live up to its potential. The linkage between depopulation and social/economic processes taking place across the Russian Federation may well be associated with the nation’s rather inhomogeneous, polarized natural-terrain, territorial-economic, and settlement structure and marked differentiation in terms of major demographic and natural/economic determinants. By its subject matter, the issue of depopulation has long stopped being strictly scientific – it now also has a political, economic, and ethnocultural ring to it. In this context, ‘The Concept on Demographic Policy in the Russian Federation for the Period through to 2025’ expressly sets out the goals, principles, objectives, and key focus areas for Russia’s demographic policy, as well as the mechanisms for implementing it and curbing depopulation. However, all these postulates have thus far failed to be a factor for rational activity and greater responsibility for implementing set objectives on the part of relevant public authorities, which is affecting the nation’s geopolitical security.

External Migration

Migration is a mass phenomenon of our time, a permanent phenomenon which takes manyforms, affects all continents and all countries. This phenomenon is one of the most important socialand international issues of the modern world. In this context, the Russian Federation is not freefrom problems arising from migration processes. Migration policy of the Russian Federation isa very important part of that country’s geopolitical game. Location Russia between the EuropeanUnion and China creates considerable scope to influence the shape of migration processes notonly regional but also global. Russia has become a country of immigration. There are two veryimportant aspects in the migration policy of Russia: the internal and external aspects. The internalaspect relates to such phenomena as the fight against the demographic crisis and related deficitsin the labor market, national and religious revival of ethnic groups living in Russia, the low levelof social integration of immigrants. In terms of external migration policy is treated as an instrumentof pressure on the countries of the former Soviet Union, a way of shaping relations with Chinaand the element of national security. Russian migration policy is an active instrument for solvingproblems within the country, as well as a very important foreign policy wizard. Pejorative sideof this policy is that it is planned from above, without taking into account the needs and natureof various Russian regions.

With the economic and social crisis, the methods of making forecasts of social tension in the regions of the Russian Federation are relevant. They are needed for the regional and federal authorities to take timely measures to reduce tension. A kind of social tension is ethno-social tension. It is significant in the historically multi-ethnic regions of the Russian Federation, in large cities and in the constituent entities of the Federation with a high activity of the flow of external migrants. We analyzed the state of ethno-social tension in the regions of the Russian Federation during the coronavirus pandemic based on preliminary data from the General Prosecutor’s Office of Russia and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia on registered crimes and registration / deregistration of foreign migrants.

Demographic Policy

Amid the latest economic and political challenges, as a major factor influencing the dynamics of development in countries around the world, the issue of having in place an effective demographic policy is increasingly gaining in strategic significance, especially for the Russian Federation. Relevant today as never before is the need to investigate the area of regulation of processes related to the nation’s population dynamics. Most of the key trends identified by scholars and experts in the literature tend to be expressive of the fact that the serious problem is still there, with very little revealed in the way of positive outcomes from the fulfillment of central tenets of the Concept on Russia’s Demographic Policy through to 2025. The latest dry statistical figures indicate that, even if we are projecting high numbers for the dynamics of natural population increase, the indicator will still have negative values, which means that the only potential factor for the increase is external migration. Of relevance in this respect are the dynamics of migration from Africa and the Middle East to the EU. In the case of Russia, prior to 2014 the bulk of migrants would come in from the former Soviet republics of Central Asia, whilst today it is now Ukraine, which is quite understandable. The paper shares the findings from the authors’ analysis of key indicators for demographic policy in present-day Russia.
