Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article considers two discursive sites where a potential new frontier of life and death, seen by many as symptomatic of Empire, is articulated. First this article looks at two international reports that articulate a new and pressing need to formulate and adopt a discourse and practice of human security as a direct response to the challenges of a globalized world order. The second discursive site is the often drawn upon image of the Iraqi man in pain. In Iraq specifically, the emphasis on men in pain is potentially revealing of the mechanisms of humanitarian war and its reworking of international conflict. This article suggests that in the spaces of exception created by this humanitarianism, subjects like these Iraqi men in pain figure as the prepolitical humanity seen to be owed protection not guaranteed in international law.

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.
