"This research note is a follow-up to a comparative study of Soviet interregional migration during the years 1971-75 and 1981-85.... The recent publication of the last (and scarce) statistical yearbook for the U.S.S.R....makes it possible to calculate regional net migration balances for the final five-year period of the Soviet Union's existence (1986-1990)...on the basis of the residual method, and to compare the results with those for 1981-85 in the original study. This will be the last such update, not only because the U.S.S.R. no longer exists and no more Soviet statistical yearbooks will be issued, but also because the amount of error entailed by the residual method as a result of increased emigration would be unacceptable."

苏联的区域间迁移，最后更新。

“这份研究报告是对1971-75年和1981-85年间苏联区域间迁移的比较研究的后续行动。...最近出版的苏联最新（且稀缺的）统计年鉴...使得可以根据残差法来计算苏联存在的最后五年（1986-1990）的区域净移民平衡...并将结果与​​原始1981-85的结果进行比较这将是最后一次更新，这不仅是因为苏联已不存在，也将不再发行苏联统计年鉴，而且因为移民增加导致的残留方法所带来的错误数量将是不可接受的。 ”
