Abstract:
The study of the regularities of international migration processes, economic, social and
cultural transformations caused by the reorientation of regional migration flows in the second half
of the twentieth century is relevant and timely for countries that are actively modernizing their
migration policies. The article is devoted to the analysis of trends in the impact of globalization
processes on the migration policy of the state. Paper purpose is to study the impact of globalization
processes on the formation of the nature of migration policy measures taken by the state in modern
conditions. The transition of the Ukrainian economy to market relations, reform in the political
sphere, deepening of integration processes have created extremely favorable conditions for our
country's full participation in the international labor market. Ukraine's entry into the world market is
shaping new migration flows. In the structure of external migration, labor migration is becoming
more and more prominent. Thus, the tendencies of migration processes in Ukraine are defined; the
features of the Ukrainian international labor migration are investigated. In the course of the research
it is proved that the present level of migration legislation and migration policy of Ukraine as a
whole is still far from the level of European countries. As a result some propositions for the state
authorities to improve the migration policy of Ukraine were made, according to which Ukrainian
authorities at national and sub-national (regional and local) levels should take greater control of
their coordination role in migration management and related migration and development issues, as
well as assume responsibility for building technical capacity, to be able to support such
management and related activities.
