Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article discusses a specific, and relatively narrow, issue: Whether the move to a mixed member proportional voting system caused a change in the legal status accorded to New Zealand's political parties. It is argued that there is less of a cause-and-effect relationship between these two developments than might be thought. The fact that the same legal developments have occurred in the United Kingdom and Canada suggests that there are dynamics at play, aside from the nature of the voting system, that determine the form of legal controls placed on political parties. The article concludes with some tentative speculation as to what might explain the change in regulatory approach that has taken place in the last two decades.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
