Abstract
Abstract During the early stages of the Second World War, the governments of Britain, New Zealand, Australia and Canada each adopted sweeping powers to conscript men into their respective armed forces. When conscription was subsequently extended to encompass productive as well as military activities, and made applicable to women as well as men, it quickly became a web that entangled every aspect of wartime life. However, the existing historiographies have focused largely on the political and institutional dimensions of these measures or have assessed their impacts by reference only to certain groups within society. Relatively little has been written about how populations as a whole were affected by conscription and how people from various walks of life responded to its many impositions. While a few scholars have started to upset these trends by producing wide‐ranging social and cultural analyses, even their works have remained almost totally confined within national frameworks.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
