Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We have the pleasure of introducing this sixty-seventh volume of the American Journal of Comparative Law. The publication of the last issue of the previous volume (LXVI) marked the end of our first five-year tenure as Editors-in-Chief. Little did we know, when we started five years ago, how much the Journal would become a part of our daily routines, and how time-intensive, but also how rewarding, this work would be. During the last annual meeting of the American Society of Comparative Law, its membership voted to renew our tenure for another term. We gladly accept this mandate and are encouraged by this vote of confidence. The last year has been, again, an exciting year. On the occasion of the Congress of the International Academy of Comparative Law in Fukuoka, a supplement issue containing the American reports, edited by Vivian Curran and Frank Gevurtz, was produced and made freely accessible online. The Winter Issue featured a symposium on “Legal History and Comparative Law: A Dialogue in Times of the Transnationalization of Law and Legal Scholarship,” consisting of five contributions guest-curated by Thomas Duve, Director of the Max Planck Institute for European Legal History. We believe we have reason to be proud of the line-up of articles and the breadth of different methodologies that we published in 2018. As we start the new year, we wish to express our gratitude for the work done by the members by the Executive Editorial Board and by our Book Review Editors, Professors Richard Albert and Paul Dubinsky. A special thank you goes to Professor Dubinsky, Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies at Wayne State University Law School, who has resigned after many years spent with the AJCL. We wish him well in his future endeavors. At the same time, we welcome and are grateful to Joshua Karton, of Queen’s University, who has accepted to join as Book Review Editor. Finally, our Articles Editor, Amber Lynch, of the McGill University Faculty of Law, deserves our profound gratitude for her wonderful work. A special thank you goes to her also for the work she did on the Supplement Issue for the reports of the Fukuoka Congress. Our gratitude also goes to Stephen Janick, J.D. Candidate 2019, Georgetown Law, who helped with the copyediting of that issue.

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.
