Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Caribbean landscape is intertwined with threads of resilience, cultural richness, and a complex history marked by colonialism. The legacies of European domination continue to cast long shadows, shaping power structures and social relations across the region. Postcolonial scholarship has illuminated the enduring impact of colonialism on power dynamics, economies, and cultural identities (Parashar, & Schulz, 2021; Said, 1978; Anzaldúa, 1987). Colonial administrations established centralized control, privileging European elites, and marginalizing Indigenous and African populations. These hierarchies continue to influence land ownership patterns, political structures, and even social interactions in many Caribbean nations (Beckles, 2000; Ramjit, 2019). Heterarchy offers a compelling alternative to these entrenched power structures. Defined by anthropologists like Descola (2001) as a system that prioritizes collaboration and distributed power, heterarchy challenges the notion of a single, dominant authority.

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.
