Abstract

The revitalization and functioning of territorial communities in wartime requires special attention from scientists and specialists due to the postponement of the necessary methodological support and complete statistical data, which leads to the search for new approaches and methods. The aim of the article is to determine the rating and gradient of efficiency of functioning of territorial communities of Luhansk and Donetsk regions in the conditions of war.  Methods used in the study: comparative analysis, gradient, detailing and generalization, rating and grouping, etc. The hypothesis of the study was the assumption that it is expedient to assess the functioning of territorial communities by means of their rating and calculation of the efficiency gradient. Presentation of the main material: Given the diversity of living conditions of the territorial communities of Luhansk and Donetsk regions, effective management of their daily functioning, development or recovery requires taking into account the characteristics of each community, which were consolidated into three blocks: territorial and security; operational and priority-oriented block of features. The article builds a rating efficiency of the functioning of territorial communities in the dynamics for 2022-2023. for territorial communities of Luhansk Oblast and Donetsk Oblast with structuring according to the spatial and security type. Based on the data obtained, an efficiency gradient for the temporarily occupied territorial communities, a gradient of the efficiency of the functioning of recovery territories and depopulated communities of Luhansk and Donetsk regions for 2022-2023 were built. The originality and practical significance of the study lies in the comprehensive application of ratings and the gradient of efficiency of the functioning of territorial communities of Luhansk and Donetsk regions for 2022-2023, that is, during the war. Conclusions. Quantification of the results of the overall rating calculated in dynamics made it possible to identify certain highly efficient, effective, ineffective or inefficient communities, forming a gradient of efficiency. In turn, its additional analysis, taking into account the type of territory (recovery areas, depopulated communities and temporarily occupied territories), became the basis for determining the main triggers for changes  in socio-economic efficiency. Further research - the identified trigger points (community indicators) will allow to form an array of substantiated recommendations or proposals to improve the socio-economic efficiency of the functioning of communities in Luhansk and Donetsk regions in wartime and post-war times for each type of territory, which will be the object of further research.
