THE THEORETICAL MODEL OF SOCIAL INTEGRATION OF INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS IN THE COMMUNITY

Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of social integration of internally displaced persons into the host community. Despite the numerous studies currently being conducted in Ukraine: sociological, psychological, demographic, etc., the conditions for the integration of internally displaced persons to host communities remain insufficiently learned. In our opinion, this impedes the systematic solution and forecasting of social integration problems at the national, regional and local levels, as well as the process of developing an optimal social policy in relation to the migrating person. Therefore, the purpose of the article is to analyze scientific research in this area and develop a theoretical model for the integration of internally displaced persons in the community. We have considered the last researches on the stated problems and have specified the content and the structure of the process of integration of IDP. On the basis of methodological analysis, the theoretical model of social integration of internally displaced persons in the community has been developed. The theoretical model of social integration of the IDP in the community is developed, which consists of four components: socio- psychological, cultural and communicative, socio-economic and socio-political. These components affect the degree of social integration of IDP and their social well-being. The scheme of the IDP integration process into the community is specified. The scheme has three levels of structure: the level of community-based IDP, the level of perception of the IDP community population and their adoption, and the administrative political level of creating the necessary conditions for successful social integration of the IDP.
