Abstract

The potentials of the interdisciplinary study of migration are presented. Unifying and particular markers have also been identified in the connotation of individual forms of migration.  It is shown that migration is often a "cause for scientific alarm": when studying migration, scientists, as a rule, demonstrate one or another degree of concern. Nevertheless, migration routes (in the wild, in a living organism, in society) can acquire relative stability and constancy, then the "well-trodden" routes cause less concern. It is shown that return migration is traditionally (archetypically) perceived as the optimal travel trajectory. Modern sociologists also tend to describe return migration as less risky. However, in everyday consciousness, other variants of the connotation of the phenomenon of return are possible. So, if migration was originally conceived as irrevocable (for example, moving from the province to the capital), then the return is assessed as a failure. If migration (for example, pendulum migration from the suburbs to work and back) was thought of as a return, it is perceived positively.
