Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Rites of passage are inextricably associated with Arnold van Gennep. Such rites are most closely associated with initiations of various kinds and with major changes in the life cycle. As Van Gennep showed, changes of social status typically comprise ritual acts distinguishable as “rites of separation,” “rites of transition,” and “rites of incorporation.” During the second half of the twentieth century, several anthropologists built on Van Gennep's insights. Focusing particularly on the liminal stage of transition rituals, Turner developed a concept of “communitas,” a social condition in which actors temporarily or permanently stand apart from the dominant institutions of society, sometimes challenging or facilitating change in these. In contrast, other writers (e.g., Bloch, La Fontaine) have shown how rites of passage can be used by dominant groups to maintain or reinforce established political orders.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
