Mass emigration of the population in the context of economic security ensuring: reasons and solutions to the problem

The article examines the reasons for mass population outflow. The aim of the study is to determine dependence of population emigration on the level of economic security in the country and identify the economic reasons and factors that create threats to economic security and force individuals to leave their home country. It was revealed that some dependence is traced between the scale of emigration and the size of GDP per capita; it was determined that there is some dependence of the emigration scale on the level of economic development and conditions for organizing entrepreneurial activity, as well as on the living conditions of an individual in the state and society, provided that the country development level of emigration is within the world average; an assumption was made about the absence of emigration potential among residents of the least developed countries due to the lack of financial opportunities for moving and their low demand as a labor force; the factors that determine the greatest attractiveness of the host country for a potential emigrant are identified, including the general level of economic development, availability of educational and medical services. The conclusion was made about the need for developing production and increasing GDP volumes in the industries with high added value in order to increase the level of economic development, which can increase the immigration attractiveness of Russia and Tajikistan and reduce emigration flows to a minimum. It has been proposed to use a targeted approach as a temporary measure to increase the incomes of those categories of specialists who are most needed in the economy.
