Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Jerome Klassen explores Canada’s role in the global system. He rejects the claims of Canada as a “peripheral” or “dependent” economy, and argues that because of the structure of the Canadian economy and the role of its corporations, “it has an independent interest in the new imperialism.” Since the Cold War era, Canada has abandoned its role as a middle power and now plays an important role in Western military alliances, the international financial system, and the institutions of global governance.

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.

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.
