Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

As the past decade of Canadian labour history reveals, the structure of institutionalized labour relations that has prevailed in Canada since the 1940s has not been immune to processes of contradictory change. In his response to Chris Hurls The Structure of Betrayal: Trade Union Bureaucracy and Public Sector Struggles in British Columbia (SPE 83), David Camfield offers critical theoretical insight into the institutionalized structure of labour relations in Canada and the kinds of union officialdom and bureaucracy that it tends to promotes. As Camfield notes, this institutionalized structure can lead to the disarticulation of the interests of union officials with that of the rank and file, as evidenced in the BC Health Support Workers Strike. As this strike demonstrated, historical events create not only novel terrains of class struggle, but also new opportunities for critical inquiry into contemporary trade unionism.

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.
