Abstract
The western usually seems to be a nostalgic genre with a conservative political message. However, one of the most prominent westerns of recent years, HBO's Deadwood television series, offers a sustained and complex meditation on life within a world ordered entirely around the marketplace. Using the work of theorists Wendy Brown, Michel Foucault, David Harvey, and Fredric Jameson, I argue that Deadwood allegorizes life within neo-liberalism, and in so doing, the television show dramatizes how neo-liberal affects and desires differ from more traditional liberal notions of the individual in society. In a town built outside of the United States, the characters in Deadwood struggle to form a society that both operates according to the free market, yet protects each individual's right to pursue her own self-interest. Deadwood represents a violent past that is both a vision of our neo-liberal present and a possible future. Le western semble habituellement un genre nostalgique qui présente un message politique conservateur. Toutefois, l'un des westerns les plus en vue des récentes années, la série télévisée Deadwood de HBO, offre une méditation soutenue et complexe de la vie dans un monde articulé entièrement autour d'un marché. Me fondant sur le travail des théoriciens Wendy Brown, Michel Foucault, David Harvey, et Fredric Jameson, je fais valoir que Deadwood est une allégorie de la vie dans le contexte du néolibéralisme et, ce faisant, l'émission télévisée dramatise la façon dont les affects et les désirs s'écartent des notions libérales plus traditionnelles d'une personne dans la société. Dans une ville établie à l'extérieur des tats-unis, les personnages de Deadwood se débattent pour former une société qui fonctionne conformément au marché libre et qui protège en même temps le droit de chaque personne à poursuivre son propre intérêt. Deadwood représente un passé violent qui est à la fois une vision de notre présent néolibéral et de l'avenir possible.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
