Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Activists in small Jewish population centres contributed significantly to the success of the Soviet Jewry movement. Yet, their activism is virtually disregarded in the literature. Through examination of the diversity of Soviet Jewry advocacy in Calgary, this paper demonstrates how one small Jewish centre contributed to the broader movement, thereby addressing the lacuna regarding the Soviet Jewry movement’s implementation in smaller cities across Canada. By positioning the Calgary activity within the larger national context, this study highlights the demographic and geographic challenges that both hindered and shaped the Calgary Soviet Jewry campaign while shedding light on its often-contentious relationship to the period’s primary Jewish governing body, the Canadian Jewish Congress.

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.
