The sustainable development paradox: urban political economy in the United States and Europe * Rob Krueger and David Gibbs (Eds)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recent work in the field of urban political ecology has brought to attention the lack of critical discussion surrounding notions of ‘sustainability’ in local planning and policy discussions. In The Sustainable Development Paradox: Urban political economy in the United States and Europe Rob Krueger and David Gibbs edit a comprehensive volume that highlights many current critical conversations about sustainability. Work on sustainability generally begins by stating that it is a widely recognized concept with no clear definition and therefore the need to define it becomes paramount. Krueger and Gibbs go beyond this tired trope and challenge current theorizations of sustainability while taking up critical analysis of its use in material practice. The question that runs throughout the volume is: how can we discuss achieving a state of sustainability under the current economic system? Through detailed case studies, the authors take a distinctly geographical approach to discussions of localized meanings of sustainability and their relationship to neoliberalism.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
