Property rights and regulatory innovation: Comparing constitutional cultures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper examines the relation between constitutional property rights and the capacity of self-governing communities to engage in regulatory innovation. Through the lens of ‘‘constitutional culture,’’ property rights in Canada’s constitutional order are compared with those in the United States. Thinking about constitutions in cultural terms aids in understanding the changes occurring in national constitutional systems resulting from the constitution-like disciplines associated with economic globalization. In the Canadian case, constitutional culture helps us to locate a constitutional property right with some normative force that does not quite rise to the level of constitutional text. This attenuated right fits the conception of the Canadian state as being better able to handle problems of transition and to take measures for societal selfprotection. To some extent, this capacity may be under threat, given the commitments of the North American Free Trade Agreement, and may move Canadian constitutional culture further toward a U.S.-style limited government.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
