Abstract
This chapter concerns with the contemporary phenomenon of 'roots tourism' in the Scottish Highlands and Islands: journeys made by people of Scottish Highland descent ordinarily living in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. In diasporic contexts there are return movements such as Zionism and Rastafarianism, movements that are at once religious, political and aesthetic. In LaCapra's terms, the Highland Clearances emerge as the historical trauma through which the existential anxieties of people of Scottish or part-Scottish descent dispersed throughout the world may be acted out, narrated and brought into the public domain. The Clearances are thus misidentified as the foundational trauma of the Scottish diaspora, a myth in which the Highlanders suffered a genocide, were expelled from their ancestral homeland, and forced to live in slavery and exile overseas.

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
