Model of the International Migration Influence on the Economy of Ukraine
In the article has been determined that, although various aspects of available theoretical concepts of migration are still in use, the unified general theory of migration still does not exist. This is why classical theories of migration do not lose its relevance to this day and can be useful for solving problems and achieving assigned goals. During the years of independence, Ukraine formally established State institutions, whose duties include the management of international migration, as well as laid foundations of the regulatory framework in this sphere. Though, even at the present stage, the State lacks a clear, scientifically sound and, most importantly, realistic foreign policy of migration, which would take into account the current demographic situation and the status of the domestic labor market and meet interests of the State in a whole, its individual regions in particular, as well as various groups of the population, including direct migrants. On the basis of assessment of an econometric model of the migration influence has been displayed that the total income from working immigrants in Ukraine are lower than the relative rates of changes as to selected factors. If the employment income will increase by 1%, the relative growth rate of the labor force in Ukraine will increase by about 4% when all other factors remain unchanged. With this in mind, the strategy of Ukraine's participation in the global migration processes should be focused on reduction of poverty.
