THE STATE REGULATION OF THE PROCESS OF ETHNIC REPATRIATION IN GERMANY

Abstract

Currently, the system of international relations is beginning to change rapidly due to the instability of the situation. It should be noted that military conflicts between the Russian Federation and Ukraine, Palestine and Israel, as well as other tense situations in the Middle East region contributed to this. Taking advantage of these circumstances, many countries are actively pursuing an indirect policy of annexing lands in regions of densely populated diasporas located outside their borders. This is how the process of forming a "titular nation" begins. And also, in search of ways of national identity, a new wave of ethno-nationalism is being formed. Therefore, the importance of ethnic repatriation policy has increased. Today, more than 40 countries of the world are working purposefully and effectively in this direction. Germany was one of the first countries to begin ethnic migration after World War II. In the international arena, their experience in repatriation policy is evaluated positively.

Due to this, in this study, the authors conduct a comprehensive analysis of the state regulation of repatriation policy in Germany. It will be studied the adopted national laws and programs on documentation, adaptation and social support of people of German nationality resettling to their historical homeland. In addition, a review of integration work organized through non-governmental organizations will be conducted. The economic and social consequences of repatriation are considered. In general, all stages of state support for immigrants to their historical homeland are characterized. The pros and cons of organizing ethnic migration in the studied country will be analyzed. General scientific approaches and methods of studying the German experience in state support of ethnic repatriates will be applied.
