Abstract
Description
The purpose of this research is to highlight the results of Russian
policy for Ukrainian labour migrants, which is both of theoretical and practical
importance, since it enables modern Ukrainian leaders to take into account positive
and negative experience of unprivileged classes labour migration in the late 19th and
in the early 20th centuries. The research methods are based on the main principles
of historicist tradition, scientific objectivity, comprehensive approach and data
classification. In order to achieve the purpose the authors use a number of general
scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, classification) as well as specific historical
methods, such as problematic and chronological, comparative, retrospective and
method of periodization. As the result of the research, the authors have made a
conclusion about quite high activity of the inhabitants of Dnipro Ukraine in
migration movements during the second half of the 19th century and the early of
the 20th century due to the lack of land. The economic reasons were predominant for
most migrants, as they were unable to satisfy their primary needs within their region.
