Abstract
Over the long eighteenth century (1689–1848), participatory government and imperialism expanded rapidly throughout the world, often accompanied by revolutionary upheaval and always accompanied by constitutional debates and reforms. This article argues for calling the era the Age of Constitutionalism, an Atlantic, indeed global, phenomenon that includes revolutions as one response to a constitutional crisis but does not marginalize non-violent movements for constitutional change and reform. This framing shifts the epistemological emphasis and meta-narrative to an object of change – namely, constitutional reform – and away from an extreme tool of constitutional change – revolution. It is especially critical for the political history of early Canada, which had no revolutions but underwent significant and contentious constitutional changes that were shaped by Indigenous peoples, settlers, and imperial officials. By shifting the focus away from the din of revolutions to constitutional debates, the sense of the range of political actors during these decades of global upheaval expands dramatically.

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.
