Abstract

If former ethnic groups in the USSR were living under the slogan of one people, then the Soviet collapse brought about significant changes. The end of the twentieth century and the beginning of the 21st century were marked by the creation of an iconic ethnic painting. In other words, a compact society be-comes suddenly divided into ethnic minorities, and Diasporas was created not necessarily as a condition of emigration. Gradually, migration procedures have been considerably simplified, which has particularly marked the creation of Diasporas in the post-Soviet space. The desire to look for a better way of life, but also access to education abroad has given the green light to migration flows. Thus, the diaspora communities from the 15 states that were formerly part of the USSR began to be formed. The article will analize the relationship between Diasporas belonging to the post-Soviet states and their homelands, in particular, Russian Federation, Belarus, Ucraine, and Caucasian ans States cases, and states policies related to diaspora engagement in motherland development.
