Abstract: The “Digital migrant”, as a concept, is used to refer to a migrant who realises his information needs by information digital technologies. This give rise to new trends in international migration processes, among which the global informatisation can be highlighted. This is expressed in the mass representation of migrants in social networks, in virtual network migrant communities’ creation. The digital diaspora being an electronic platform is the basis for migrants’ access to online public content, serves as an … Show more

The main goal is to consider the problem of modeling cross–border innovations in the Russian-Chinese border area and to develop priority areas in the field of strategic planning of international cooperation in foreign economic public discourse. The theoretical and methodological basis of the research uses the methodological holism of digital humanities, including a new interpretation of works on economic sociology and demography, international division of labor and cooperation, cognitive modeling and mapping, political science, social economics and foreign economic media linguistics, regional studies, Russian and Chinese studies, discursology, machine learning and semantic analysis. The main objectives of the study are to identify semantic vertices in the strategic infrastructure of the cross-border region of Russia and China with modeling of the upper-level architecture with the sequential disclosure of individual sublevels and blocks with parameterizing markers, which allows us to determine the emphasis on the carrier modules in the proposed model. The results of the work result in the development of links in the innovative system of international cooperation based on the theory of metagraphs in order to improve the efficiency of international cross-border transport routes of various types in the Russian-Chinese border area.

Subject. The article deals with development of information and communication technologies, the modern world labor market. Objectives. The focus is no examining the impact of new categories of workers (telemigrants and digital nomads) on the level of income inequality in countries of residence and host countries. Methods. The study employs methods of statistical and graphical analysis. Results. Telemigrants and digital nomads have different effects on the labor market in host countries. The use of telemigrants leads to a decrease in the level of wages and social protection of workers in the host countries. At the same time, an increase in the level of income of telemigrants is expected only in the short term, and in the long term, wages may decrease to the level prevailing in the host country of the telemigrant. Digital nomads do not have a significant impact on the labor market of the host country and have a negligible impact on the level of inequality in the country of residence. At the global level, the impact of the unidirectional flow of digital nomads to developed countries exacerbates inter-country inequalities. Conclusions. Digitalization of the global labor market leads to increased inequality both between countries and within developed countries. It enables employers to significantly reduce costs by attracting cheap labor from abroad and reducing the level of social protection of workers.

The article presents the findings of a sociological study, which uses Self-Determination Theory to describe and explain the motivation of remote workers. Representing a fundamentally different form of labor organization, remote work forms new conditions in which many management problems are solved, including motivation. An online survey conducted among Russian remote workers (N = 402) measured the satisfaction of three basic psychological needs (for autonomy, competence and relatedness) and six types of motivation, forming a continuum from amotivation to intrinsic motivation. According to the results, satisfaction of psychological needs creates conditions for the development of intrinsic motivation of remote workers, thus supporting Self-Determination Theory. The study also reveals that identified regulation and intrinsic motivation are more pronounced than other types of motivation. This may explain why in many studies remote workers are very positive regarding their remote work experience, in comparison with traditional forms of labor organization. The study thus confirms the applicability and value of Self-Determination Theory for explaining the features of remote work and designing optimal work organization models based on it.
