Abstract

This paper introduces the concept of ’invasive migration’ – a process where migration acts as an uncontrolled force reshaping the cultural, social, and economic landscapes of recipient countries. Drawing parallels with biological invasions, the study emphasizes the loss of cultural specificity and the transformation of national identities. This concept provides a fresh perspective on modern global changes.
