Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article conceptualizes processes of moralization as rational, dialectic constructions of self and other that are transmitted through everyday discourses of risk management and harm avoidance. One explanation is provided for how volatile moralizing discourses, as a temporary extension of moralization in everyday life, are transmitted through configurations of grievance and risk under neo-liberalism. The article offers insights into the diverse ways in which moralization operates, and it critically assesses moral panic theory's continued use in criminological research.

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.
