Abstract
The authors revisit their paper, ‘Jungle law breaks out: neoliberalism and global‐local disorder’, published by Area in 1994, commenting on the theoretical and political context of that time and on the subsequent course of debates around neoliberalism. Focusing on the Thatcherite strain of neoliberalism as a manifestation of post‐Keynesian crisis politics, and along with its associated strategies of deregulatory devolution, the paper called particular attention to the project's reactive moment and to its distinctive mode of scalar politics. Subsequent experience has underlined the stubbornly adaptive character of the neoliberalisation process, which nevertheless continues to be animated by crises (of a contingent and conjunctural nature), while propagating yet more asymmetrical forms of regulatory rescaling. It might be said that a kind of jungle law, in this sense, continues to hold sway.

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
