Abstract
Globalization has challenged the traditional conceptualization of the sense of belonging between people and places. This article takes up social theorist Ulrich Beck’s notion of place polygamy as a theoretical departure to understand immigrants and their sense of belonging to multiple places. The author analyzes Ming Pao (West Canadian Edition) , a Cantonese newspaper in Vancouver, Canada, to argue that the immigrant press is constructing two locals, one place oriented and one people oriented, on a daily basis. The notions of multiple homelands and multiple attachments provide a new perspective to study how the community can be imaged and narrated across national borders. It also challenges traditional immigrant scholarship that treats the home country and the host society as an either-or dichotomy for winning immigrants’ affection and loyalty.

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
