斯洛伐克共和國於1993年1月1日正式成為一個獨立的民主共和國，經由一連串的政治、經濟改革努力，順利的在2004年加入歐盟，成為歐盟二十五個會員國之一。在獨立之前，地利上曾是匈牙利的一部份；政治上，更是曾與捷克共和國組成捷克斯洛伐克共和國。因為這種種因素，使得斯洛伐克早期在經濟上以重工業及國防工業為主，依據中央統籌計畫，實行東歐經濟互助會貿易義務。在獨立之後，政府為了向歐體靠攏，政府對於經濟政策作了調整，以求實現市場經濟，促進本國貿易發展及鼓勵外資投資。本文將就斯國於冷戰結束獨立建國以後，政治及經濟的轉型發展逐一討論。 The Slovak Republic became an independent country on January 1, 1993 and strived to join the European Union then became one of the 25 Member States in 2004.
