Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

As a result of the period of détente, East and West German scientists interacted more frequently. This chapter reconstructs the clash of cultures by focusing on East Germany’s role at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Austria. IIASA was founded to bring together scientists from East and West to research shared problems and thus to build a “bridge” between the two opposing systems – with systems analysis referring to a set of technical theories of management, transport, and climate, as well as growth, innovation and education. The underlying image of knowledge was in stark contrast to the intellectual culture that developed in the preceding decades in East Germany. Even if participation was considered important for displaying East German science, its contribution was caught up in the precepts of the Western scholar as a class enemy. The chapter presents the best-documented case, the economist Harry Maier (1934–2010), who was one of the few social scientists who visited IIASA for two years between 1978 and 1980, and then, in 1986, used a conference visit to escape from East Germany.

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.
