Abstract
Through analysis of two social issues that held the potential for anti-UNESCO campaigning by the American Radical Right in the 1950s – UNESCO’s much publicized Statements on Race and the use of UNESCO textbooks in public schools and libraries – I argue that micromobilization contexts can create conditions of path dependency whereby the initiation of one campaign hinders other campaigns from developing. Specific micromobilization factors – past campaigning on similar issues, tactical expectations, an available pool of skilled activists, frame resonance, a national conservative media, and amenable polities – created favorable initial conditions for anti-UNESCO censorship campaigning, while competition from activists in another social movement restricted campaign development in response to UNESCO’s Statement on Race. The micromobilization context from which the censorship campaign emerged created conditions of path dependency which limited further the viability of American Radical Rightists developing a campaign in reaction to UNESCO’s Statement on Race.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
