Nationalists and immigrants – security and public order of the Russian Federation

Journal Title: Securitologia - Year 2014, Vol 19, Issue 1

Abstract

Every year in the Russian Federation decreases the number of inhabitants. According to the UN estimates, by 2050 years there will be 30 million fewer Russians. At the same time, the number of immigrants is constantly increasing – both from abroad and from the peripheries of Russia (internal migrants). Currently around 10-12 million legal and illegal immigrants live in the Federation, which leads to the increase of number of supporters of nationalist and xenophobic ideas. The incidents on ethnic grounds take place often. According to the SOVA Center for Information and Analysis, in 2012, 18 people were killed and 171 people were injured in the racist-ground encounters. The article shows, how increase in the number of immigrants and xenophobic acts influences the public safety and order in Russia.
