Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The concepts of precariousness and precarity are multivalent, with different conceptual and political traditions reflected in different disciplinary approaches. In geography, the notion of precarious work has been utilized by economic geographers exploring the flexibilization of labor markets, changing relations of employment, and the conditions of low‐paid and migrant workers in the Global North. This research has focused on economic restructuring, changing policy and regulatory regimes, and new employment norms at a variety of scales – often in relation to macro‐economic changes associated with evolving relations of capitalist production and the rise of neoliberalism. These approaches overlap, however, with articulations of precarity and precarious life that explore, on one hand, generalized political and social conditions of existence and, on the other, microlevel material and embodied ways in which insecurity and vulnerability are experienced and understood.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
