Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract ‘Modern encounters’ argues that despite increasing condemnations of polygamy, it continued around the world, well into the twentieth century, in increasingly altered modern contexts. Polygamy around the world began to seem to many, even in cultures of traditional polygamy such as those in Egypt and Turkey, to be inferior, uncivilized, and embarrassing. There was increasing legislation against it as nations sought to prove their progress and international standing through limitations on polygamy. Yet there were still many adherents and practitioners of polygamy across a range of settings. Many people, including renegade Mormons in Canada, indigenous Americans, Aboriginal Australians, and Māori people in New Zealand, practiced polygamy, as did Thai, Chinese, and Nigerian people.

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.
