Economic Mechanisms for Increasing the Resilience of Territorial Communities in Conditions of Military and Security Threats: An Analytical Dimension of the Mykolaiv Region

Анотація

The current development of territorial communities in Ukraine takes place under prolonged military and security threats, which significantly complicate socio-economic development and recovery processes, especially in frontline regions. Under such conditions, economic governance mechanisms gain increasing importance as tools for enhancing community resilience and ensuring adaptation to crisis challenges. The purpose of the article is to analyze economic mechanisms for increasing the resilience of territorial communities under military and security threats, using Mykolaiv region as a case study. The research is based on an analytical approach combined with a regional case study, which allows consideration of the specific features of a frontline region and differentiation of communities according to the level of military impact. The study integrates the analysis of local budget indicators, tax revenues, business support programs, and regional and local strategic planning documents. The main hypothesis of the study is that an effective combination of budgetary, investment, fiscal, and institutional governance mechanisms can partially offset the negative effects of military threats and ensure a basic level of economic resilience of communities. The methodological framework includes methods of analysis and synthesis, comparative analysis, statistical generalization, and structural-functional and systems approaches. As a result of the research, the dynamics of local budget revenues were assessed, the impact of military actions on entrepreneurial and agricultural activities was characterized, disparities among communities of the region depending on their security status were identified, and key economic support instruments for territorial development were systematized. It was established that budgetary and fiscal mechanisms remain the most stable sources of community resilience during wartime, while investment mechanisms are significantly constrained due to heightened security and financial risks. The theoretical significance of the study lies in advancing approaches to analyzing the economic resilience of territorial communities under military threats. The practical significance consists in the possibility of applying the findings by local self-government bodies and military administrations in shaping recovery and development policies. The originality of the research is determined by a comprehensive analysis of economic resilience mechanisms in a frontline region context. Further research may focus on assessing the long-term effectiveness of these mechanisms in post-war recovery processes. The article is analytical in nature.
