Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This essay focuses on the role that discursive structures such as "neoliberalism" play in political theory, and on how these heroic discourses inhibit theoretical projects seeking to generate solutions to damaging political projects. In response to a discourse-focused trend within political theory, this work elaborates an 'activist political theory' intended to be both theoretically rigorous and tactically enriching for the embattled groups from whose lives political theory often springs. As one example of an activist political theory, this essay explores political theorist Paul Apostolidis's work with the 'ordinary politics' of a group of immigrant workers in Washington state, and the Gramscian ideologies undergirding his theoretical approach.

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.
