The project explores Leiharbeit (“loan work”) as an example of normative change regarding the labour market in the early Federal Republic as well as its implications for the changing shapes of statehood in the 20th century. It aims to illuminate blind spots of contemporary historical research that take Leiharbeit to enter the historical stage only in the period after the boom. By contrast, this project seeks to spotlight the debates about the various manifestations of Leiharbeit as well as the changing regulations regarding this form of employment (including the state monopoly on labour exchange) through the course of the 20th century with an emphasis on the early Federal Republic. Thereby, the project offers an innovative impulse for the history of labour in general.Preliminary studies about the labour market debates in the Weimar Republic and during National Socialism have shown that during these decades a pejorative representation of Leiharbeit developed that was hardly influenced by the changes of political systems. After the second half of the 1950s had once again seen an increased effort to reduce this form of employment, the 1960s and 1970s were marked by crucial developments and normative changes that are indispensable for understanding the “neoliberal” tendencies of labour market policies after the boom. The project puts a special emphasis on the invention of “Zeit-Arbeit” (temporary work) that took place during these decades and which was conceived of as a counter-model to the pejoratively connotated Leiharbeit. By means of this concept, the protagonists of the recently established temporary work industry were able to paint a new image of their service that was tightly connected to narratives of freedom and self-realisation.By means of publicised as well as archival sources, the project traces the debates dealing with Leiharbeit, reconstructs decision processes, and aims at elucidating the interests of various labour market participants. The project conceives of the protagonists of the temporary work industry as early protagonists of processes of economisation and privatisation in the labour market field. Early on, they began to develop their vision of a more flexible and mobile labour market that eventually became a component of the deregulation efforts of the 1990s and 2000s. The institutionalisation of Leiharbeit as a normal component of the labour market at the end of the boom period was possible, the project claims, because entrepreneurial groups in the service sector got the upper hand in a conflict about what role a modern state is to play in the labour market field. The chief aim of this project is to trace this “conflict of modernity” by the example of Leiharbeit and to thereby enrich the research dealing with statehood in the 20th century.

该项目探讨了Leiharbeit（“贷款工作”）作为联邦共和国早期劳动力市场规范变化的一个例子，以及它对世纪国家地位变化的影响。旨在说明当代史学研究的盲点，即莱哈贝特只是在繁荣之后才登上历史舞台。相比之下，本项目旨在通过世纪的过程，重点关注联邦共和国早期，关注关于Leiharbeit的各种表现形式以及关于这种就业形式的不断变化的法规（包括国家对劳动力交换的垄断）的辩论。对魏玛共和国和国家社会主义时期劳动力市场争论的初步研究表明，在这几十年里，莱哈贝特的贬义表现几乎没有受到政治制度变化的影响。在1950年代后半期再次加强努力减少这种形式的就业之后，1960年代和1970年代出现了关键的事态发展和规范变化，这些变化对于理解繁荣之后劳动力市场政策的“新自由主义”趋势是必不可少的。该项目特别强调在这几十年中出现的“Zeit-Arbeit”（临时工作）的发明，它被认为是对带有贬义的Leiharbeit的反模式。通过这一概念，最近成立的临时工作行业的主角能够描绘出他们的服务的新形象，与自由和自我实现的叙述紧密相连。通过公开和档案资料，该项目追溯了处理Leiharbeit的辩论，重建决策过程，旨在阐明各种劳动力市场参与者的利益。该项目将临时工作行业的主角视为劳动力市场领域经济化和私有化进程的早期主角。在早期，他们开始发展他们对一个更灵活和移动的劳动力市场的愿景，最终成为20世纪90年代和21世纪初放松管制努力的一部分。该项目声称，在繁荣期结束时，莱哈贝特作为劳动力市场的一个正常组成部分的制度化是可能的，因为服务业的企业家群体在一场关于现代国家在劳动力市场领域应扮演何种角色的冲突中占据了上风。本研究的主要目的是以莱哈尔贝特为例来追溯这一“现代性冲突”，从而丰富世纪关于国家地位的研究。
