Contribution to the study of Volkische Ideologie and Deutschtumsarbeit among the Germans in Canada during the inter-war period
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Between World Wars I and II, the ethnic Germans in Canada strove to retain their \nlanguage and culture. The impetus came on the heels of the Great War because lingering \nanti-German sentiment and assimilationist policies threatened to destroy their culture and \ntraditions. Canada?s ethnic Germans were not alone in such endeavours, as German \ncommunities around the world also attempted to retain their identity. Within Germany, \nthere flourished a movement designed to aid and foster the protection of German \nethnicity around the globe. The movement encompassed private, semi-official and \nofficial agencies. The scope of their activities touched upon every aspect of ethnic \nretention and affected every country in which a sizable German element resided. \nFunding, materials, and guidance flowed from Germany to the ethnic Germans abroad, \ngreatly influencing the direction and content of their attempts to retain their heritage, and \nthis included the ethnic Germans in Canada. This thesis will give perspective to \nDeutschtumsarbeit in Canada by placing it within the context of the global movement \norchestrated from Germany.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
