Abstract

The purpose of the work is to study the impact of migration processes on industrial development and the increase in the labor force was mainly due to migration from the RSFSR and deported Crimean Tatars. Migration processes caused by political and economic factors in the conditions of deportation caused a change in the boundaries of resettlement, socio-demographic structure, level of education, and ethnic self-awareness of the Crimean Tatar people. Based on archival materials and documents, field research and interviews, and questionnaires of people of the older generation, the history of labor activity of deported Crimean Tatars in the Uzbek SSR in the 1960s-1980s has been reconstructed. The level of urbanization of emigration, contribution to economic development, labor achievements of Crimean Tatar workers and engineers of industrial enterprises, construction, and agriculture of the republic are considered. The results can become the basis for finding new ways to raise the economy at the expense of migrants.
