Abstract
The New International Financial Architecture (NIFA) was created by powerful G-7 countries in response to the growing volatility in the developing world. Some key components of the NIFA include: the G-20, the Financial Stability Forum and the Reports on Observance of Standards and Codes, the latter involving areas such as corporate governance. The aim of this article is to address some important yet largely neglected questions. Why the new building? Who benefits from this construction? Unlike most accounts of the NIFA, the following analysis does not remain focused on its institutional terrain; but instead draws linkages between these structures and the paradoxes inherent in global capitalism. One such contradiction is the constant promotion of financial liberalisation in emerging markets by US-led international financial institutions (IFIs), on the one hand, and the frequency of financial crises in the developing world, on the other. The article suggests that the NIFA is an attempt to strengthen (stabilise and legitimate) the scaffolding of the existing imperative of free capital mobility.

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
