Resumo

This article is dedicated to the analysis of political strategies for migrant integration in contemporary Russia. At present, we live in conditions characterized by increasing migration flows from both neighboring and more distant countries. The government of the Russian Federation must develop and implement effective mechanisms to incorporate migrants into the political, legal, and sociocultural spheres of society. Research objective. The aim of this study is to examine the main political strategies for migrant integration currently implemented in the Russian Federation at both the federal and regional levels, including legal initiatives and institutional support mechanisms aimed at constructing the image of the “acceptable migrant.” In this context, political strategies are understood as deliberate actions undertaken by state institutions and their partners to include migrants in the sociocultural, legal, and potentially political space of the host society. Special attention is given to the analysis of adaptation programs, cultural mediation, linguistic socialization, and mechanisms for civic participation of migrants. Conclusions. At this stage, Russia’s integration policy is predominantly characterized by an adaptation-assimilation approach and requires a more systematic strategy that takes into account both cultural diversity and the political engagement of migrants.
