Abstract
The central topic of ethno-social research in Russia has been the study of social phenomena caused by migration from Central Asian CIS countries for a long time. The article discusses the main approaches and methods used to study the ethnic diasporas from Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan that reside in the Republic of Tatarstan. The purpose of this article is to systematically review scientific publications on Central Asian migration in the Republic of Tatarstan over the past twenty years, with a focus on transnationalism. This will help identify areas where there is a lack of scientific knowledge, topics that need further exploration, and set new research objectives.
