Abstract
The Law of Deliberative Democracy, written by Ron Levy, a senior lecturer at the Australian National University, and Graeme Orr, a professor of law at the University of Queensland, has broken critical new ground in the practical application and expansion of deliberative democratic theory. The core concept for deliberative democrats is that the exercise of political power is only legitimate when it is justified by conversation and consensus with a broad range of citizens. With this book, Levy and Orr examine the degree to which the laws of politics measure up with the ideals of deliberative democracy, as well as how and why they should. In doing so, the authors ask an important question: To what extent does election law––the body of laws regulating parties, candidates, voters, and other actors involved in representative elections––encourage or inhibit deliberation, by the citizenry, about the mechanics of their democracy?

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
