Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Anti-terrorism laws could be constructed and defended without reference to the problematic idea of militant democracy, namely the idea that democracies are justified in denying freedoms associated with democracy to those who reject democracy. Terrorism as violence directed at civilians could be punished as ordinary crime. Murder is murder. It is not excused because the criminals acted with extremist political or religious objectives or motives. The ordinary criminal law also does not necessarily require democracies to wait until it is too late and the terrorists have caused death and destruction. If properly identified, terrorists could be apprehended and punished under the ordinary criminal law when they have formed conspiracies or attempted to commit crimes such as bombings and assassinations. Such a traditional crime-based approach should be far less problematic for Western democracies than prohibiting expression or associations that are found to be inconsistent with the tenets of democracy.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
