Migration processes in the Kabardino-Balkaria (1941-1945)

The article examines the migration processes that took place in Kabardino-Balkaria during the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945). The experience of local authorities, institutions, and public organizations in the placement, creation of material and living conditions and employment of forcibly evacuated citizens from other regions of the country is analyzed. The evacuation of part of the population of the KBR to the Transcaucasus, Central Asia and Siberia, associated with the threat of occupation of the region by German-Romanian troops, is also shown. The article examines the daily life of the evacuated population after the liberation of Kabardino-Balkaria in 1943. The number and order of placement of the evacuated population in the cities and districts of the republic are revealed. The features of migration processes in the republic during the Great Patriotic War are revealed: the involvement of specialists, teachers, doctors from other regions to restore the economy and social sphere. The procedure for re-evacuation of the population is analyzed. It is concluded that in the harsh conditions of wartime in the KBR, as well as in the country as a whole, complex evacuation and re-evacuation processes took place, leading to a deterioration in the material and everyday life of the population. Despite this, thanks to the social support of the state, enterprises, institutions and the public, the forced evacuation and re-evacuation of the population ensured its survival in the extreme conditions of war.
