ABSTRACT: The rapid and large-scale migratory movements of people in the
post-Soviet period caused by the collapse of the USSR and the formation of new
sovereign states, which have a whole range of consequences in all spheres of
the socio-political and socio-economic life
of peoples. The destruction of the once mighty state and the single
economic division of labor and associated with the incredible scale of
unemployment, massive impoverishment of the population, and a sharp social and
property stratification of society led to a socio-economic crisis. As in all
former Soviet republics, the socio-economic situation in Kyrgyzstan has
deteriorated, which is the main reason for the increase in the migration
mobility of its ethnic groups, including the Kyrgyz. The purpose of the study
is the identification of external migration process features in south
Kyrgyzstan. The following research methods used in this work: a survey of
respondents, analysis of survey materials, surveillance, and field survey of
households in the southern region, conversation with local government
officials, members of migrant families, analysis of statistical materials, and
analysis of mass media materials.
