Abstract:
The main trend in the current migration situation of the Republic of Kazakhstan
can be considered the expansion of the migration zone outflow, the reduction of the migration zone
inflow and the gradual increase in the polarization of the country’s territory according to the effectiveness of migration flows. The goal is to study the factors of migration decline, reduction of
migration attractiveness, associated with the strengthening of inter-regional socio-economic differences in the development of regions and, consequently, the unequal attractiveness of territories. The
article analyzes the migration processes of the population of North Kazakhstan region, suggests the
periodization of population migration during the post-Soviet period, and identifies the factors of the changes. The indicators of migration turnover and population decline, the coefficients of arrival and departure, the coefficients of migration attractiveness for 2009-2019 are calculated. An assessment scoring of the migration situation and sociological study of the migration mood are carried out of the region’s population.
