Resume

The study reviews and critically evaluates the approaches used to assess intersectoral linkages. The study concludes that modernizing intersectoral analysis through methodological diversification is crucial for producing relevant, multidimensional policy insights. The integration of classical transparency with modern complexity enhances the capacity to assess structural changes and to formulate evidence-based strategies in an increasingly interconnected and volatile global economy. The article presents a comparative table of methods and discusses their use by international organizations (e.g., OECD, UNCTAD, EU Commission), national governments, and academic researchers. Special attention is given to how these tools have been adapted in Ukraine and other emerging economies for regional planning, industrial policy, and evaluating the socio-economic impacts of green transition policies. The study concludes that modernizing intersectoral analysis through methodological diversification is crucial for producing relevant, multidimensional policy insights. The integration of classical transparency with modern complexity enhances the capacity to assess structural changes and to formulate evidence-based strategies.
