Summary/Abstract: From the European integration goals point of view we may see the year 2001 as a continuation of permanent effort to sustain political stability, legislation or economics reform, or reform of relations with foreign partners. Without an analysis of the last year, without a look back we would loose an overview of larger or smaller successes, of errors and mistakes of uncovering our potential and reserves. Slovakia of 2002 is not only a piece of art of the year 2001 but also of previous years. It is a work of the purposeful integration policy of the President of the SR, members of the National Council of the SR, members of the Government of the SR, and administration in individual departments, which took part in realizing specific tasks connected to preparation of the Slovak Republic for the European Union membership. Hope from four years ago has changed into a common goal of the governmental coalition and the opposition; it is supported by more than 80 per cent of the Slovak public. Successful progress in accession negotiations with the European Union is an important progress; all 29 chapters covering the EU legislation have been opened and 22 of them are already preliminary closed; then there is the SR Constitution Amendment; start of the Public Administration reform; working market economy. But this is still just a part of a big building successful finish of which stays in continuity.
