Le droit de la filiation entre ciel et terre : étude du discours juridique québécois
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The thesis submitted undertakes an analysis of legal discourse in Quebec filiation Law. In particular, the author seeks to understand why this field---in marked contrast to other sectors of the civil law---continues to be influenced by natural law theories. The principle focus of the study is the period from 1980 to the present. The discourse analysis approach helps to shed light on the considerable number of reforms which took place in a relatively short period of time and gives context to contemporary interrogations of the foundations of the Law of filiation. Given that many scholars are now questioning the incoherence of the current norms, and deploring the alteration of this field of law, it is important to sketch a picture of the larger influences and values which nonetheless present continuity in the civilian tradition. From a constructivist point of view, the author's contribution to this field is to systematize the thought and vision of the scholars involved in this area of law in order to identify the various influences on them, and the range of ideas and disciplines which they invoke in justifying their theoretical vision. Filiation has been described, in different periods, as revealing a divine order, as representing the core unit of society in the national image, as translating into law a set of natural facts or as an immutable anthropological order which secures the psychological balance of subjects. This analysis of the dominant discourse suggests that the rules of filiation have, throughout, been seen to represent a transcendent order, one superior to positive law.

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.
