Abstract
In the globalization debate, there is a school of thought that the unchecked expansion of crossborder finances, investment, trade, manufacturing, and consumerism has destroyed sovereignty as well as weakened the social safety net, seriously threatening the economic stability of nations.1 Whether globalization will dismantle the current system of nation states and replace them with something different is not just a possibility, but a reality. Nation-states are forming region-markets and region-states. The oldest and the first entity to emerge from the supranational movement of the 1990s, the European Union, began to form soon after the end of the Second World War.2 In the Western Hemisphere, the Rio Pact of the American nations, a military and security alliance, dates back to 1948. Its moral and economic successor was the first Summit of the Americas meeting in Miami of December 1995 when 34 of the 35 countries of the Americas agreed to negotiate a free-market agreement by 2005. Non-democratic Cuba was excluded. In 1992, Canada, the United States, and Mexico agreed to establish the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). In 1994, it became a reality. Further south, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay signed the Asuncion Treaty in 1991, by which the four nations established a common external tariff agreement in 1995, MERCOSUR/MERCOSUL.3

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
