Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter is an expanded version of an earlier publication. It offers an international perspective of the Keepers of the Water gathering that occurred in northern Manitoba, where Elders reiterate what indigenous people have always said, 'no one can own land or water or forests' and that we all have a covenant with nature that overrides the treaties with colonial settlers. Composed of First Nations, Mèti, and Innuit peoples, environmental groups, concerned citizens, and communities working for the protection of air, water, and land, the Keepers are the grassroots communities who struggle between the covenant with nature and state. The chapter examines the conceptual underpinnings of the two types of covenants.

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.

Not 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.
