Abstract

Using an interdisciplinary approach we analyze the data of historical sources and various forms of sociological surveys, which help to characterize micromigration processes in rural communities of a typical agrarian Tambov region. The authors investigate not only the facts of irrevocable departure from the countryside, but also return migration, especially of young specialists of the Soviet era, which can be considered as various manifestations of pendulum movements of both current villagers and their previously migrated relatives. Additional confirmation of the earlier observation about a significant role in the return to the homeland of the "call of the ancestors" was obtained. Particular attention is paid to the historical and socio-psychological factors of the migrations that took place. We made an attempt to establish the direction and subjective motives of the migration plans of the studied groups of the rural population, which in many ways, according to the authors, are dreams, partly illusory.
