Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper considers racial slavery to be a problem for the Marxist philosophy of history. I begin with an exploration of the “peculiar historicity of race” in the way racial slavery is accounted for in the value-form. Then I read for how Marx (and Engels) rely on a teleological ‘necessity’ to describe the revolution between slavery and communism. This is followed by engaging Marx’s “positive debt to Hegel” qua the latter’s speculative theology. In inheriting this debt, racial abstractions at work in the Marxist philosophy of history emerge as an obstacle to theorizing the racial quality of racial slavery, accounting instead for only its historiographical and/or economic conditions, which implicates how communism is thought. To conclude, I argue that a return to Hegel surfaces the way that race comes to constitute the very substance of historical movement itself: race is the condition of possibility for history at all.

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.
