“…Eine grössere Rolle spielt etwa die Selbstständigkeit der Betreuungskräfte, zentrales Element auch der Legalitätsnarrative von Agenturen (Steiner et al 2019, 11). Dem Ideal des «unternehmerischen Selbst» (Bröckling 2007) Lutz 2011, 204;Pelzelmayer 2016Pelzelmayer , 1703. Die «Fremdheit» bezieht sich erstens auf das Spezifikum des Live-In-Verhältnisses, in dem die Care ArbeiterInnen im Privathaushalt der zu Betreuenden nicht nur arbeiten, sondern für die Dauer ihres Turnusdienstes auch wohnen und nahezu ununterbrochen anwesend sind.…”

“…Bisherige Forschungen zur Live-In-Betreuung zeigen, dass in der Konstruktion der Betreuungskräfte Prozesse der Familialisierung, der Vergeschlechtlichung sowie der Ethnisierung der Care Arbeit(erInnen) von zentraler Bedeutung sind: "Narratives of heart-felt warmth" (Pelzelmayer 2016) (Weicht 2016, 127). Ergänzt wird dies durch einen «Kompatibilitäts-Diskurs» (Pelzelmayer 2018b, 118).…”

“…Zusammen mit der Romantisierung der Care ArbeiterInnen als Engel (Krawietz 2014, 97-103) oder als «helfende, unterstützende, gute Geister» (Weicht 2016, 127) entnennt die Familialisierung der 24h-Betreuung, dass es sich dabei um Arbeit und um ein Erwerbsverhältnis handelt. Verschleiert werden die pflegerisch-professionellen Aspekte von Care inklusive der dafür notwendigen Kompetenzen sowie allgemein die prekären Arbeitsbedingungen im Live-In-Verhältnis (Leiblfinger 2020;Lutz 2011;Pelzelmayer 2016;Aulenbacher et al 2020).…”

The article examines the dispositif of 24-hour care in the context of socio-political activation. Based on a discourse analysis of websites of Austrian placement agencies, I show how care receivers and care workers are constructed as autonomous clients, passive nursing cases and self-employed workers in need of supervision and support. I demonstrate how the ambivalent subject constructions are related to competing dispositifs and how this reproduces social power relations.

“…In order to legitimise the recruitment of non-local carers, some of the agents expressed essentialist claims about the traits of carers from specific places (Pelzelmayer 2016). Care agent Pascal, who only recruits from Hungary, claims that "people from the eastern countries have a different moral concept than we do.…”

“…As yet, relatively little is known about the role of German families in the whole process; for example, how the decision to hire an LIMC is negotiated, how relationships are constructed or how older people in need of LTC perceive their situations. In the Swiss context, different accounts of LIMCs exist (Chau, Pelzelmayer & Schwiter 2018;Schilliger 2014;Pelzelmayer 2016), along with a few studies on families hiring LIMCs (van Holten, Jähnke & Bischofberger 2013), placement agencies (Schwiter, Berndt & Schilling 2014) and migrant care worker organisations (Schilliger 2015). There is a particular shortage of literature on LIMCs in the Netherlands, where only recently scholars started to pay attention to LIMC arrangements (Böcker, Horn & Schweppe 2017;Bruquetas-Callejo 2019;Da Roit & van Bochove 2017).…”
