Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The entry shows the influence of social class, as an economic relationship widely associated with wealth and occupation, upon forms of sport. It focuses in particular upon participation, but also looks at the historical manifestation of class and status differences in historical contexts such as the Colosseum in ancient Rome, and the formative phase of the growth of modern sports in industrializing Britain. Neo‐Marxist scholarship and the work of Bourdieu are used to discuss class‐influenced habitus and cultural reproduction in sport cultures, and the patterns of class‐based participation in contemporary England are summarized. In conclusion, and with reference to studies in Norway, Finland, and Canada, it is argued that class habitus and cultural capital continue to be major determinants of everyday practices and cultural institutions such as sport.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Teacher imitation

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.
