3      Application of labour and employment law beyond the contract
of employment                                     Mark FREEDLAND
The personal scope of employment law is the subject of much ongoing debate. Argu-
ing that an exclusively contractual analysis of this domain is unsatisfactory, the author
constructs a European-based empirical typology distinguishing the personal work
relations of standard employees, public officials, liberal professions, individual
entrepreneurial workers, marginal workers, and labour market entrants. These cat-
egories and their interrelationships are then analysed dynamically in terms of per-
sonal work nexuses - a concept encompassing complex legal ramifications beyond the
contractual framework.The conclusions highlight the value of this analytical approach
to recent efforts by the ILO and the European Commission to modernize labour law.
