Of Things Said and Unsaid: Power, Archival Silences, and Power in Silence
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ce texte examine les dynamiques du silence aux archives.Il soutient que le silence peut se définir, au moins en partie, comme la manifestation des actes posés par ceux qui détiennent le pouvoir afin d'empêcher aux marginaux d'avoir accès aux archives.Il affirme que cet enjeu a un impact significatif sur la capacité des groupes marginalisés de constituer leur propre mémoire et leurs propres histoires sociales.Les archivistes et les chercheurs peuvent lire les archives « contre le grain » et ils peuvent commencer à mettre en valeur ces silences et à donner une voix à ceux qu'on a réprimés.Cette activité peut toutefois s'avérer difficile et contentieuse et on ne peut l'aborder à la légère.Cet article examine ensuite comment le silence peut être une méthode favorisée par les groupes marginalisés qui refusent de verser leurs documents aux archives comme un moyen d'exercer leur propre pouvoir sur ceux qui détiennent le pouvoir.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
