Abstract: In 1957, Chancellor Adenauer fundamentally changed the paradigms of the German pension system. All in all his reform was well balanced and very successful, but he could not reach his goals of building one single system for blue and white-collar workers and of making it obligatory for all self-employed workers as well. Now, 60 years later, the profound changes in the world of labour result in a growing group of freelancers and crowd workers. They put the question on top of the political agenda of how to integrate them into the pension system. This article argues in favour of a single obligatory pension scheme for employees as well as for self-employed workers in order to avoid blanks in insurance biographies and to prevent poverty among the elderly.
