Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Social Policy and the Ethic of Care, Olena Hankivsky, Vancouver: UBC Press, 2004, pp. 178. In this tightly argued text, Olena Hankivsky examines “the potential of an ethic of care to transform the assumptions, content, concepts and meaning of social justice” (30). This is a big task for a small book but the author not only makes a persuasive theoretical case for an ethic of care but also manages to demonstrate the practical efficacy of her argument by showing how an ethic of care can inspire a reformation of social policy. The liberal case for social justice, the author contends, falls flat and remains abstract unless it is fundamentally transformed by the normative assumptions that arise from a moral landscape fully informed by the ubiquity of human interdependence. The liberal conception of social justice is shackled by its emphasis on the autonomous citizen and an abstract conception of humanity. It fails to recognize that rights arise from needs.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
