This chapter focuses on the integration of migrants from Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries coming to Russia under a visa-free regime to work as low-skilled workers and on the agents involved in the process of their integration, namely administrative officials, employers and members of the civil society, with emphasis being placed on the national and local level. It investigates the contribution of a range of governmental and non-governmental agents to the integration of migrants on local level. Immigration is one of the most vigorous sources of cultural diversity in contemporary societies, which brings up the idea of a required mechanism that would facilitate social cohesion and stability and prevent tensions and cultural misunderstandings. The neoliberal economic project focuses on the socio-economic integration shifts the burden to individual immigrants, who become responsible for their integration. Studies of European integration policies thus point to the key role of dialectic of inclusion and exclusion in the mechanisms of integration.
