Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Issues related to globalization are central to most contemporary works in sociology, no matter the specialization. During the past two decades, sociologists have investigated the effects of globalization on most aspects of social life and the extent and variety of the research and literature on the subject have been widely commented upon. This special issue of the Canadian Journal of Sociology represents a modest attempt to stimulate a discussion of the relation sociology itself has with globalization. These papers examine the contemporary transformations of the organization of sociological work and the production of sociological research and discourse in the context of the growing interaction of local, national, regional, and global networks. Résumé. Les questions liées à la globalisation sont centrales dans la plupart des travaux contemporains en sociologie et ce, peu importe la branche de spécialisation. Durant les deux dernières décennies, les sociologues ont examiné les effets de la mondialisation sur la majorité des aspects de la vie sociale. Le nombre et la variété de la recherche et de la littérature sur le sujet ont été abondamment commentés. Ce numéro spécial des Cahiers canadiens de sociologie est une modeste tentative visant à susciter une discussion à propos de la relation entre la sociologie et la globalisation. Les articles de ce numéro examinent les transformations contemporaines dans l’organisation du travail sociologique, mais aussi dans la production de la recherche sociologique et de son discours dans le contexte d’une augmentation des interactions entre réseaux locaux, nationaux, régionaux et globaux.

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.
