Accession of the Republic of Slovenia as a full member of the European Union in 2004 precipitated changes in the Slovenian society, in particularly in its legal system that had stronger legislative influence than noticed in the social or economic life. During the first year of accession to the EU, evolutionary changes happened in all areas, although not always perceived as positive. The initial enthusiasm of the first years faded and critical aspects of certain procedures of the EU institutions emerged, becoming more pronounced during the economic and financial crisis. The legal system was harmonized with the Aquis Communitaire on the normative level, but not fully implemented in daily practice. Not knowing EU's operational rules, the legal profession was initially reserved. The practice showed a strong discrepancy between the normative and the actual operation of the EU. This text presents author's observations regarding the influence of the EU's legal rules on Slovenia's legal system following EU accession.
