Abstract
The watershed in most accounts of the history of twentieth-century Quebec came with the Quiet Revolution of the 1960s that ushered in an interventionist state and swept away the long-standing influence of the Catholic Church. In the aftermath of these changes, French speakers (the vast majority of the population) considerably improved their economic status and developed enough self-confidence to consider independence. As a result, the Quiet Revolution has been widely accepted as the moment that firmly inserted Quebecers into the mainstream of North American life. Michael Gauvreau's considerable accomplishment, in this important book, is to reexamine the concept of the Quiet Revolution by disconnecting the decline of Catholicism from the growth of the state. Instead of dwelling on the determination of Quebecers to unburden themselves of a religious yoke, he focuses on individuals who worked from within the Catholic Church to negotiate social change. From this perspective, the Quiet Revolution might be seen as a “sustained attempt to enhance and strengthen, rather than weaken and ultimately sever, the relationship between Catholicism and Quebec society” (p. 5).

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.
