Summary/Abstract: Accession negotiations are politically sensitive processes closely observed by the lay and professional public (unlike other international negotiations). Because they are of key importance, for a better understanding of accession negotiations dealt with in the second part of this essay, the first part briefly describes the nature and specific features of negotiations among the EU Member States. The third part of this essay compares these processes with Slovakia's current experience of accession negotiations, which were recently concluded at the December 2002 Copenhagen Summit.
