SMART MANUFACTURING AS A STRATEGIC DETERMINANT OF UKRAINE’S INDUSTRIAL POLICY AMID GLOBAL STRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATIONS
type: item
description: This article substantiates the development of smart manufacturing as a key determinant of Ukraine’s industrial policy in the context of global transformations. Trends in global deindustrialization are analyzed using the Lawrence model, which reveals a unidirectional dynamic: rising GDP per capita leads to a declining share of manufacturing in GDP. Ukraine is currently undergoing accelerated deindustrialization marked by pendulum-like fluctuations, which necessitates the implementation of reindustrialization policies that align with contemporary needs. The study identifies both external and internal factors shaping demand and supply for manufacturing output and evaluates the effectiveness of current «Made in Ukraine» policy initiatives. To operationalize the logic of local protectionism, the research proposes creating registries of goods, services, and activities aligned with Industry 4.0 technologies, as well as the establishment of special regulatory regimes based on industrial parks.

MODELING THE PATTERNS OF THE IMPACT OF MILITARIZATION ON MACROECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
type: item
description: The system of the modern global security space is characterized by growing instability, rising conflicts, and increasing military spending. The discrepancy in empirical findings regarding the impact of military spending on economic growth indicates that the issue is debatable and demonstrates that the reasons for and forms of conflict are always specific and unique, which makes it necessary to seek new approaches to assessing the intensity of militarization of economies. This article studies the socio-economic differences among countries that determine the possibilities for building up military potential. It has been substantiated that a high level of economic militarization does not guarantee greater stability, and social and economic inequality intensifies further stratification in society and becomes a source of conflict. The integrated index of the intensity of a country’s military build-up was developed and tested, the application of which develops a system for monitoring, assessing and modeling the processes of militarization of countries’ economies. A comparative analysis of countries by the intensity of militarization processes was conducted, which made it possible to: (1) classify countries by the intensity of these processes; (2) identify the patterns; and (3) assess their impact on country development indicators. Based on the assessment of the relationships between the developed integrated index and the indicators of the most significant international ratings (the Global Prosperity Index, the Fragile States Index, the Global Peace Index, the Human Development Index, the Social Progress Index, and the Democracy Index), it has been proven that intensive militarization has a significant negative impact on peace and security, as well as on the institutional, legal, and socio-economic stability and resilience of the country.

MERGING CONTINUOUS AUDITING AND DIGITAL TWIN IN TELECOMMUNICATION ENTERPRISES WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF AZERBAIJAN
type: item
description: This article explores the conceptual and practical integration of two interrelated digital technologies – digital twin and continuous auditing – within the governance and operational systems of communication enterprises. In the era of pervasive digitalization, telecommunications organizations operate in complex, dataintensive environments that require real-time decision-making and continuous risk management. The digital twin is examined as a virtual representation of a communication enterprise’s technical and service infrastructure, enabling real-time modeling, monitoring, and predictive optimization of network processes and resources. In parallel, continuous auditing is analyzed as a digital assurance mechanism that performs ongoing, automated evaluation of financial, operational, and technical activities across the enterprise. Methodologically, the research is based on a synthesis of theoretical and comparative analysis, interpretive evaluation of secondary data drawn from enterprise reports, policy documents, and sectoral strategies. The article argues that their integration creates a closed-loop system where digital twins simulate and forecast enterprise performance, and continuous auditing validates and controls these digital processes. Using the case of Azerbaijan’s telecommunications sector, including Aztelekom LLC, Bakcell LLC, and Azercosmos, the research assesses the current state of technological readiness, identifies institutional and legal barriers, and outlines strategic pathways for implementation. By combining comparative analysis of EU best practices with an evaluation of the national «Digital Azerbaijan» strategy, the study demonstrates that the convergence of digital twin and continuous auditing can significantly improve efficiency, sustainability, and competitiveness in communication enterprises, marking a new stage in the country’s digital transformation.

SPATIAL TRANSFORMATION FOR POST-WAR UKRAINE: EUROPEAN CASES AND THE POTENTIAL OF LOCAL INNOVATIONS
type: item
description: The article examines the issue of spatial transformation in post-war Ukraine by combining European experience with local innovations. It suggests using an infrastructure-service approach to rebuild the country, combining physical reconstruction with the development of a service ecosystem focused on innovation, human capital and sustainable development to foster regional and community growth. The types of local innovation are categorised, and their unique role in territorial transformation «from below» is demonstrated. The results of European case studies on spatial transformation (in Denmark, Spain and Germany) in terms of restoring energy, social and environmental infrastructure, and restructuring the economy are presented. These results could be adapted for the post-war recon struction of Ukrainian territories. The article proposes a system of metrics for evaluating the effectiveness of infrastructure and service design for managing the reconstruction of Ukraine’s affected regions. This system seeks to coordinate the activities of government agencies, corporations, communities, and foreign partners; ensure the transparency of management decisions; and set criteria for choosing reconstruction projects.

ENERGY INDEPENDENCE OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES: INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE AND DEVELOPMENT PROSPECTS IN UKRAINE
type: item
description: This article examines the formation of energy independence among local communities in times of crisis. It studies the international experience of establishing energy communities in European countries, defining them as non-profit organisations that provide environmental, economic, and social benefits to communities. Using historical and logical methods combined with critical, statistical, structural, and graphical analyses within a systemic framework, the study examines the advantages of transitioning from centralised to distributed energy generation to ensure community energy independence. A multi-criteria methodology is proposed for assessing energy projects, taking into account economic, environmental, social, and innovation efficiency indicators. Key areas for achieving energy independence in territorial communities are identified, including the development of local energy plans, implementation of renewable energy sources, application of smart technologies, and creation of local energy communities. The study demonstrates the need for a systemic approach to forming energy-independent territorial communities as a foundation for sustainable development during crises. JEL: C52, F20, L59, O20, Q21.

THE IMPACT OF RURAL LABOUR MIGRATION ON FARM INCOME: THE CHINESE EXPERIENCE AND A CONCEPT FOR THE EU AND UKRAINE
type: item
description: This study analyses how rural labour migration (RLM) affects household income in rural areas, combining theoretical approaches and empirical data. Using an unbalanced panel sample from several periods based on data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), the authors apply the propensity score matching (PSM) method and a fixed effects model to assess the impact of RLM on farmers’ incomes. The results show a significant positive effect, achieved mainly through the strengthening of family social capital and access to the social security system. Heterogeneous analysis indicates that the effect is more pronounced in western China and among low-income households. The paper also conceptualises the applicability of China’s experience to the European Union and Ukraine, given similar demographic challenges, dependence on the agricultural sector and depopulation processes. The results are of practical importance for the formulation of rural economy development and migration management policies, especially in the context of post-pandemic and post-war recovery.

CROSS-CORRELATION ANALYSIS OF DYNAMIC INTERDEPENDENCIES BETWEEN SOCIOECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND THE DEMAND FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN UKRAINE
type: item
description: The paper identifies time lags and provides a quantitative assessment of the interrelationships between key socio-economic indicators and the dynamics of enrollment in higher education institutions. The methodological framework is based on cross-correlation time series analysis using distributed lags, which made it possible to determine the delayed effects of demographic and economic factors on educational processes. The study revealed a delayed correlation between birth rates and the number of students, with a time lag of 16–18 years, as well as an inverse relationship between the unemployment rate among individuals with higher education and the number of applicants. A negative impact of high lending rates on the demand for higher education was identified, alongside a positive effect of the growth of vulnerable employment, which stimulates the pursuit of education. The practical significance of the study lies in the potential use of the obtained results for forecasting educational needs, improving public funding mechanisms, optimizing the network of higher education institutions, and developing an integrated «education–economy–security» strategy in the context of Ukraine’s European integration.

TOURISM-DRIVEN EMPLOYMENT IN GREECE: UNPACKING REGIONAL SPILLOVERS AND THE ROLE OF MARKET DYNAMICS
type: item
description: Inbound tourism performance is an important factor in the overall business cycle in Greece. In 2016-2022, the change in inbound tourism exports constituted about a half of the GDP change. This paper analyses the structural issues of employment effects of the inbound tourism in Greece in 2009-2022. Correlation analysis was used to find associations between tourism indicators and employment in accommodation services; agriculture; food and beverage industry; food and beverage service activities; libraries, archives, museums and other cultural activities; water collection, treatment, and supply. No significant effect on employment trends in air transport and tour reservation services was found. Tourism is especially important in some regions of Greece, where it also provides spillover effects to employment in local suppliers. Regression models were used to estimate the positive effects on employment in accommodation establishments, total regional employment and its sectoral structure, unpacking regional spillovers and the role of market dynamics.
