The article, based on official data and the results of research, examines changes in migration patterns in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), following the disintegration of the former USSR in the early 1990s. It also considers the factors bringing about these changes. The article covers migrations between the CIS countries, as well as between them and the rest of the world. Attention is given, inter alia, to repatriation of ethnic Russians and of other ethnic groups, forced migration of refugees and displaced persons, labour migrant flows, irregular migrations, and the repatriation of former deportees
