Summary/Abstract: The question of entitlement to pension benefits based on temporary ("freelance") contracts with EU authorities arises precisely when these have not been explicitly excluded. Although the interpretation must rightly be restrictive, there are cases that go back to the early jurisprudence of the EU and thus to the young history of European law; it can be consulted as a "teacher" for today's interpretation.
