Description
Summary:Socio- economic security is one of the important conditions for development of a city. Its provision depends on the influence of a combination of factors, the demographic one being among most important. This factor is complex in nature, thus, in studying its impact on socio-economic security of an urban geosystem, two aspects are singled out – birth to death ratio and labor migration. The impact of labor migration on socio-economic security of an urban geosystem is multifaceted. In view of this, for its consideration, a cognitive map for two types of labor migration – labor emigration and labor immigration – is developed. In the cognitive map, the impact of labor migration on socio-economic security of a city is described in two loops – short-term and long-term ones. Based on the results of the study, it is found that the relationships between the factors, processes and phenomena which determine the impact of labor migration on socio-economic security of a city are non-linear and not simple, with labor migration being simultaneously a factor of the state of socio-economic security of the city and its consequence. Quantitative assessment of the influence of the demographic factor on socio-economic security of an urban geosystem requires reliable data, which can be used to determine the main parameters of internal and external migration flows. Indeed, based on the existing estimates, it is difficult to imagine the scale of internal and external migration, its impact on the social component of an urban geosystem, as well as to organize activities of the city government to ensure the socio-economic security of the city.
