Summary/Abstract: The author analyses legal status and interpretation of the Stabilization and Association agreements in the European Union legal order and in the legal order of the non- member countries that have expressed a wish to join EU. The author then sets the question, whether this kind of agreements possesses direct effect. The answer to this question is supposed to be given by the European Court of Justice. But due to the lack of practice in this field, one has to take into consideration the cases before ECJ and its opinions concerning direct effects of Association agreements since the certain resemblances exist between these two types of agreements. The paper has three parts plus introduction and conclusion. The first part describes main characteristics of the Stabilization and Association Agreements; the second part analyses the similarities with the Association Agreements, while the third part presents the cases before ECJ, in which the Court examined the direct effect of the Association Agreements.
