Globalizing Family Values: The Christian Right in International Politics
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Globalizing Family Values: The Christian Right in International Politics, Doris Buss and Didi Herman, Minneapolis/London: University of Minnesota Press, 2003, pp. xxxvii, 197. When read against the backdrop of President George W. Bush's successful re-election—a victory achieved, evidently, with support from significant numbers of conservative Christian voters—this book provides important observations, and perhaps to some readers, ominous warnings about the strategies, ideology and policies of conservative Christian political activists in general and the American contingent in particular. That the Christian Right (CR) has taken to the international arena in ever-increasing numbers in recent years may come as a surprise for some. Indeed, until quite recently—particularly after the American presidential elections of 1996—many observers concluded that the bulk of activist CR organizations were a) waning in political influence, and b) concentrating what remained of their energies upon the domestic front to carry on the battle against those ubiquitous domestic targets: liberalism and secular-humanism.

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.
