Student: Khakhulina Natalya

Supervisor: Veronika Kostenko

Faculty: Saint-Petersburg School of Social Sciences

Educational Programme: Sociology (Bachelor)

Year of Graduation: 2017

The process of studying ethnic minorities and migration flows is one of the key directions in the sociology of migration. It is studied by both Western and Russian researchers. Scientists have repeatedly stressed that conflict situations, even direct confrontation, connected with migrant communities, are not of an ethnic but of a social nature. Accordingly, ways to solve them need to be sought not so much in the field of interethnic relations, as the social interaction of different layers of society. The migration flows and the change in values will affect both institutions and the institutional environment as a whole, as well as theories of assimilation and transnationalism. The analysis of the work is built on the questionnaire of E.L. Schwarz. In this paper, the following questions are considered: Does migration and migration status affect the change in values and beliefs of migrants? How and which values of migrants change over time?
