Abstract

The paper deals with the problem of perception of migrant workers in host societies. Active migration flows and growing intercultural have determined the need for the optimization of labor migrants' socio-cultural environment. It is impossible to accomplish without public attitude monitoring. In this regard, the youth aged 18-24 was surveyed. Empirically obtained results of questionnaires for students (n=5 355) have proved our assumption that majority of young people associate the growing of number of labor migrants with the adverse consequences for socio-economic life. Thus, 38,5% have a negative attitude to migrant workers in general. More than half of respondents supported the complication of legislation for labor migrants, which is combined with the current trends of reforms in migration policy in European countries. In summary, we suppose that attitude of the young indigenous population to migrant workers has a proclivity to develop into the problems of internal interethnic relations and marginalization.
