Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract In June 1984, Margaret Thatcher hosted P. W. Botha, the Prime Minister of apartheid South Africa, on a state visit to London. The visit provoked intense opposition from the anti-apartheid movement in London, and a major demonstration was held to protest against the visit. This chapter examines that march as an illustration of London’s place as a locus of global radicalism, in this case the anti-apartheid movement. As the chapter shows, London had long been a centre of anti-apartheid activism. In the 1980s, that profile was heightened, in part by the growing visibility and strength of a global anti-apartheid movement, and in part by the support lent to the anti-apartheid cause by the GLC. The chapter argues that questions of race and anti-racism in the 1980s could only be discussed as a connection between the local and the global.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
