Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Although women have a long history in the discipline of geography, dating from the nineteenth century, they did not move into it in significant numbers until the 1980s. Questions about the representation of women in the discipline are starting to move from a concern with overall numbers vis‐à‐vis men to the chronic underrepresentation of women of color. Institutions representing women started to emerge in the 1970s, and a number of types of organization now serve the professional interests of women and promote gender‐based and feminist research. Their presence is geographically uneven and replicates that of women in the discipline, being well established in the Anglo‐American heartlands and more sporadic elsewhere. While the future for some women in Anglo‐America – those who are white, middle‐class, able‐bodied, and English‐speaking – seems certain, the possibility of a future of women in geography being racialized is much more uncertain. For those women outside Anglo‐America, issues of English‐language hegemony also dominate.

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.
