The theory of Sorokin P., according to which migration can be considered as the horizontal social mobility, two types of which are distinguished: mobility as a voluntary movement and mobility, dictated by the structural changes (industrialization and demographic factors); neoclassical economic theory of M. Todaro. The main idea of this theory is the “attracting – pushing out” theory, the factors of macro-level of migration. Complex of common scientific and special methods of political science was used in the process of the research. Systematic method and the use of the analytical approach made possible to prove interrelation between migratory processes and the problems of national security.

The total volume of questioned migrants from China constituted 300 people. Among them 96 migrants were questioned in 2004, in 2007 – 204 migrants, including in Astana-126, in Almaty- 184 respondents.

This work can help in the elaboration of migratory policy. The specific data and conclusions can help to promote the formation of the tolerance in the society and to reduce the conflict potential.
