FEATURES OF LABOR MIGRATION IN CENTRAL ASIA: SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND LEGAL ASPECTS

Abstract

This article explores the specifics of labor migration in Central Asia in the context of political and legal regulation at the national and regional levels. The aim of the work is to identify key trends, problems and challenges related to labor migration, as well as to analyze existing regulatory mechanisms that regulate migration processes in the countries of the region. The main research areas include: analysis of international and national legal acts regulating labor migration; identification of institutional mechanisms and practices of migration policy; study of the influence of political factors and interstate interaction on migration processes. The focus is on the need to develop a coordinated approach to regulating labor migration that takes into account the interests of both donor and recipient countries. The scientific and practical significance of the research lies in a comprehensive analysis of the current state of legal regulation of labor migration in Central Asia and the development of recommendations for its improvement. The methodological basis of the work is based on an interdisciplinary approach, including methods of comparative law, political analysis, systemic and institutional approaches. The study revealed gaps and contradictions in the legal provision of labor migration, as well as limited opportunities for coordinating migration policy between the states of the region. It is concluded that there is a need to harmonize legal norms and strengthen institutional cooperation in order to improve the effectiveness of labor migration management. The value of the conducted research lies in the systematization of data and conceptual understanding of the migration policy of Central Asia, which makes it possible to deepen the scientific understanding of migration processes and develop recommendations applicable both in scientific and practical terms. The practical significance of the results of the work is expressed in the possibility of using the findings in the development of regulatory legal acts, migration policy strategies and in the activities of government agencies dealing with migration issues.
