Abstract
This article examines the transformation of pastoral governance within one organisation – the Thomas Cook Travel Agency, from an extemporaneous Temperance trip to a heavily organised structure to a system of tourist tickets where tourists could travel independently. Cook began the project of tourism to reform the subjectivity of the working classes and middle‐class women by diverting them away from alcohol and other wasteful activities and exposing them to new sights and cultures. Cook developed a form of tourism whereby he, the promoter, organiser and conductor, would create tours that would attend to the needs of clients while providing them with an ennobling and sobering experience. As his tourists became more experienced, they came to resent Cook's overarching superintendence. As a conductor who attended to his tourists, Cook developed a ‘Circular System’ of tickets, hotel coupons and currency notes that allowed tourists to travel independently while still benefiting from Cook's organisation, guidance, and governance – if now from a distance. Tourism as a form of pastoral governance allows for a better understanding of the evolution of tourism but also for an enhanced conception of the relationship between tourists and the tourist industry.

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
