Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the results of interviews and questionnaire survey of Tajik migrants in Moscow and the Moscow region. The article considers the self-assessment of family relations of migrants from Tajikistan and the material well-being of their families. Correlation factors affecting the state of family relations among migrants from Tajikistan have been identified. It is noted that the social institution of the family, in addition to the obvious functions of childbearing and upbringing, performs non-specific, but no less important economic functions related to the accumulation and transfer of property, status, organization of production and consumption, household, recreation and leisure. One of the options for implementing this function is the labor migration of family members. It has been established that migrants actively seek to maintain family relations in the case of labor migration. It is recommended that the migrant labor community needs state support to improve the economic situation of their families and reunite with them. Based on the results of the work, it was concluded that for more than a quarter of migrants, the purpose of staying in the Moscow agglomeration is to provide for their family. The respondents positively assess their relationships in the family and the ability to provide for them. Migration in most cases leads to the transformation of family relationships, as a result of which the ties in the respondents' family are not broken, and they strive to actively maintain contact with the family in an online format. Based on the conducted research and analysis of primary empirical data, the key conclusions about the nature of interaction with relatives of migrants from Tajikistan in Russia are presented.
