Abstract:

The European Union acquis communautaire were applied to all ten of the states seeking accession in 2004. Although universal in term, the acquis applied in particular historical and institutional circumstances which resulted in observable variation in outcomes. This study compares how the EU guidelines for accession were instituted in the Czech and Slovak Republics after the fall of communism. It focuses on labor legislation and related statutes such as Civil Service Code. The study demonstrates that in complying with the EU acquis communautaire, there are both continuities and discontinues in each country's prior labor law. In addition, it reveals how specific processes and social conditions can lead to differential application of rule of law guidelines, even in the contexts of two states that formerly had constituted one.
