Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article contributes to the debate over social policy and multilateral economic organizations by suggesting that advocates seeking to strengthen or defend redistributive social policy in the face of such institutions face a series of conflicts that involve challenges in three areas: organizational politics, state interest, and the balance of social forces. In terms of organizational politics, social policy is disadvantaged by the fusion of functionalism and neoclassical economics. Remedies to this problem lie in breaking down technocratic practice by exposing the organizations to other agendas and forms of knowledge. This then involves the other two challenges: state interests must incorporate a stronger promotion of social policies and the balance of social forces must shift away from commercial interests towards those favoring social policy innovation.

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.
