Abstract
ABSTRACT The current debate on Taiwan's development has been dominated by the statist perspective that identifies state power as a key to its growth miracle. The paper challenges this statist idea. By analyzing the evolving process of the developmental state from a predatory government in the 1950s and early 1960s, we argue that the imposing of constraints on the despotic power of the state constitutes a key mechanism by which a balanced power structure between the state and capital is formed and the private sector can develop and benefit from policy incentives. The taming of a Leviathan state and the shift from a war economy toward a developmental regime were a result of strong U.S. geopolitical intervention.

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
