Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Currently, Canada and Mexico face a number of challenges. Even though the two societies may seem much closer than they were 15 years ago, reality shows that common and bilateral interests are not in place in either of their national agendas. On the contrary, it seems as though domestic and international issues caused a rift rather than improving closer relations. The most urgent challenge is the world economic recession that started in August 2008. It has led to a contraction of the market, lower consumption levels, and increasing unemployment rates in North America and the world, creating pressures for a change of policy direction and a domestic push for protectionist measures. This is particularly evident in the United States but also implies negative consequences for Canada and Mexico. Given the levels of trade interaction that Mexico and Canada have with the United States, it could mean huge economic damage for both. Therefore, it is necessary to balance these measures by trying to build bilaterally adequate policies to counterbalance the U.S. position. This situation offers the possibility of building a new bilateral scenario impossible to imagine before the beginning of the crisis. En la actualidad México y Canadá enfrentan una multiplicidad de retos. A pesar de que sus sociedades están más cerca que quince años atrás, la realidad demuestra que los intereses comunes bilaterales no tienen un lugar prioritario en ninguna de las agendas nacionales. Todo lo contrario, parecería ser como si los aspectos internos e internacionales impidiesen el logro de una relación más estrecha. Sin duda el reto más urgente es enfrentar la recesión económica mundial que comenzó en agosto de 2008. Esta conlleva la contracción del mercado, la reducción en los niveles de consumo y el incremento de las tasas de desempleo no sólo en América del Norte, sino a nivel global. De ahí que existan presiones hacia un cambio de políticas que favorezcan la instrumentación de medidas proteccionistas. Esto es muy claro en el caso de los Estados Unidos, así como lo son también sus consecuencias negativas para México y Canadá. Es necesario alcanzar un equilibrio en las medidas que se tomen y tratar de construir una política bilateral que contrarreste la posición estadounidense. Dados los niveles de interacción comercial que los canadienses y los mexicanos mantienen con los estadounidenses, una política proteccionista ocasionaría grandes daños a ambas economías. Esta situación ofrece una posibilidad de construir un escenario bilateral entre Canadá y México que no hubiese sido posible imaginar antes del comienzo de la crisis.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
