Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

There is growing recognition of the inextricable relationship between food and punishment, a relationship buttressed by hyper-capitalism, colonialism, racism, and other harmful approaches to social control. This is abundantly clear in the context of carceral systems, where food is a tool of violence and control. Yet, in prison, food is also a tool of contestation and resistance, and a means of building community and solidarity. A critical examination of prison food is uniquely positioned to lay bare the failings of the prison system, and advance broader conversations on abolition, social justice, racism, colonialism, and capitalism. It forces us to reconsider and expand our understandings of food justice, and calls on us to include the lives, perspectives and experiences of incarcerated individuals in our visions of food system transformations and imaginaries.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
