• The Slovak economy has recently been exposed to unprecedented external shocks that fundamentally affect its current and future development. The effects of the pandemic and the war conflict in Ukraine have triggered the need to respond to the new reality at the Slovak and European level. The problem of stagnating productivity and the loss of traditional competitiveness (in the form of low unit labour costs) in the post-Covid era calls for a new understanding of economic policy that better links the promotion of productivity with human development. In this context, new challenges arise for public policies, particularly in the areas of the labour market (demographic challenges, migration), external economic relations, public budgets, science, research and innovation, not only domestically but also in relation to European policies and continued integration. The project is therefore aimed at exploring the dynamics and nature of these changes in the Slovak economy in a rapidly changing external environment.
