| Title | Migration as a security threat to Russia Case study: Central Asian Immigration |
| Summary | The era of globalization has led to the highest number of migrants in the history of human existence and Russia has become one of the biggest migrant receiving countries in the world. Because of this, large inflows of immigrants created a high degree of anxiety within Russian society. Central Asian (CA) immigrants, particularly from Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan are perceived as a security threat to Russian communal identity. Therefore, this study examines the influx of CA immigrants to Russia, identifies the role of state officials, media and public in framing the debate and its impact on migration policies. |
