Abstract
It is a commonplace observation that historically established modes of state formation are inadequately adapted to global social scale (see for example Kettl 2000; and for a theoretically sophisticated treatment of this issue Sassen 2000), although as we shall see this observation underestimates the dynamic by which this adaptation is currently occurring. Many commentators seem to conclude from the current lack of fit between the established type of state formation and global social scale that the state as such is not adequate to the demands of governing global society. This view conflates the two distinct dimensions of political organisation and social scale. Political organisation does have to be able to work with social scale, of that we can be certain, but the nature of their relationship is not one of containment. The state does not contain society, nor is it the role of the state to express society. Rather the role of the state is to provide the institutional order that brings society to account in relation to the procedural and substantive norms of justice. Units of political organisation do not have to match units of social organisation for there to be a relationship between them.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
