Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

There is no shortage of scholarly options regarding Plato’s view of democracy; many of which believe Plato was opposed to democratic regimes. Among the potential problems Plato may have had with democracy the inability of the democratic city to provide its citizens with self-knowledge would be high on the list. The democrats love of freedom and continual satisfaction of unnecessary desires inevitably lead to a contradiction of their words in their deeds. That being said the democratic love of freedom and the institution it leads to are likely the best hope for those hoping to acquire self knowledge. Discipline: Political Science Honours Faculty Mentor: Dr. Gaelan Murphy

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.
