Abstract
‘This book proposes to mark the end of American history as we have known it.’1 This is the daring assumption Thomas Bender uses as the opening sentence of his Nations among Nations. Bender’s book is about the making and unmaking of interconnections and interdependencies between America and the rest of the world on the one hand, and on the other it pinpoints the presence of the foreign within domestic American history, and the projection of domestic America into the world out there. As such, Bender does work on two of the three fronts we have mentioned as the ‘big issues’ to be handled by historians who adopt a transnational perspective. He is adamant that adopting this perspective will make a huge difference to the way American history is written and imagined. British historian Patricia Clavin upholds similar standards in a recent article where she examines the potential of global, transnational and international history to reshape European history. Clavin writes: ‘Unearthing connections and networks — however defined — within and across Europe’s borders, determining where they break or peter out, will recast our understanding not just of European history, but our understanding of the modern world.’2

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
