Migration Linguistics: Theoretical and Methodological Approaches to the Formation of the Direction

Migration researchers deal with various aspects of the proposed topics: political, economic, sociological, legal, cultural, psychological. In this regard, approaches to the definition of the concept of “migration” vary. It is not only the definition, which is a problem but also the determination of and finding the key concepts of migration linguistics such as, integration, acculturation, identity. The lack of a unified term system, and as a consequence the divergent use of the concepts of migration linguistics in various scientific fields, complicates the modeling of both migration processes and their key concepts. The object of migration linguistics is not only a model of dynamic language processes, not only a model of migration discourse, but also such aspects as motivation, circumstances, migration factors, consequences of migration processes. Each of these aspects can represent an independent sphere of research.Migration researchers deal with various aspects of the proposed topics: political, economic, sociological, legal, cultural, psychological.
