Abstract
Why, before selling council houses or denationalizing public industries, did Margaret Thatcher’s government begin to privatize Britain’s new towns? Thatcher’s Progress argues that the new towns represented the spatial dimension of the welfare state. Britain’s new towns program developed out of the garden city tradition, an approach to town and country planning that, during the early twentieth century, spread throughout the world. In the New Towns Act of 1946, the Labour government nationalized this dimension of town planning, leading to the designation of thirty-two new towns within a quarter century. This book focuses upon the most ambitious of these projects, Milton Keynes,in order to recast our understandings of social democracy and market liberalism. Rather than depicting social democracy as exhausted by the 1970s, the making of Milton Keynes reveals dynamic social democrats responding creatiely to changing times. And rather than locating the origins of market liberalism ever deeper in postwar history, this project illustrates the non-deterministic, but ultimately decisive, process through which market liberalism triumphed.

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; the direct Gemma label and the distilled Codex classifier agree on what is shown here.
