The EU Enlargement and Labour Migration : A Case Study on the Conflict Between a Latvian Company "Laval" and Swedish Trade Unions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ten countries in 2004 and two countries in 2007 have newly become members of the European Union. Those twelve countries are much poorer than old member states and Latvia is the third poorest of the twelve. Economic theory of international migration tells us that labour will move from a country with low income to a country with high income, if barriers between the two countries are eliminated, so that the wage rate of both countries will converge to the same level, but the theory does not describe what will happen in the process of such a convergence. This article is a case study on the conflict between a Latvian Company "Laval"and Swedish Trade Unions in order to provide an example of what conflict would be like when a poor country has become a member in the EU enlargement process, and to consider what it implies regarding EU integration.

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.
