  • Computational Identification of Ideology In
    Computational Identification of Ideology in Text: A Study of Canadian Parliamentary Debates Yaroslav Riabinin Dept. of Computer Science, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON M5S 3G4, Canada February 23, 2009 In this study, we explore the task of classifying members of the 36th Cana- dian Parliament by ideology, which we approximate using party mem- bership. Earlier work has been done on data from the U.S. Congress by applying a popular supervised learning algorithm (Support Vector Ma- chines) to classify Senatorial speech, but the results were mediocre unless certain limiting assumptions were made. We adopt a similar approach and achieve good accuracy — up to 98% — without making the same as- sumptions. Our findings show that it is possible to use a bag-of-words model to distinguish members of opposing ideological classes based on English transcripts of their debates in the Canadian House of Commons. 1 Introduction Internet technology has empowered users to publish their own material on the web, allowing them to make the transition from readers to authors. For example, people are becoming increasingly accustomed to voicing their opinions regarding various prod- ucts and services on websites like Epinions.com and Amazon.com. Moreover, other users appear to be searching for these reviews and incorporating the information they acquire into their decision-making process during a purchase. This indicates that mod- 1 ern consumers are interested in more than just the facts — they want to know how other customers feel about the product, which is something that companies and manu- facturers cannot, or will not, provide on their own.

  • Risk Technologies and the Securitization of Post-9/11 Citizenship: the Case of National ID Cards in Canada
    7 Risk Technologies and the Securitization of Post-9/11 Citizenship: The Case of National ID Cards in Canada Kevin Walby Carleton University Sean P. Hier University of Victoria Résumé Les attaques du 11 septembre 2001 sur Washington et New York continuent d’influencer la manière dont les gouvernements gèrent les déplacements de personnes, l’immigration, la citoyenneté et la sûreté nationale. Au Canada, suite aux événements du 11 septembre, l’une des plus contentieuses mesures envisagées en vue de garantir la sûreté nationale a été d’introduire une carte d’identité nationale biométrique. Dans cette communication, nous soutenons que l’effort en vue d’introduire une carte d’identité nationale biométrique est lié à un raisonnement idéologique qui menace d’exacerber plutôt que d’apaiser les sentiments d’insécurité nationale quant aux risques, à la citoyenneté et à la sûreté des frontières. Nous maintenons que les technologies de contrôle de « preuve de statut », telles que les cartes d’identité encodées biométriques, conduisent à la « tritisation » de la citoyenneté et nous concluons que – au nom de la sûreté nationale – ces cartes d’identité risquent de déstabiliser les spatialisations modernes de la souveraineté qu’elles sont censées protéger. Abstract The attacks of 11 September 2001 on Washington and New York continue to influence how governments manage im/migration, citizenship, and national security. One of the more contentious national security responses to the events of 9/11 in Canada has been the drive to introduce a biometric national identification card. In this paper, we argue that the drive for a Canadian national ID card is bound up in ideological processes which threaten to exacerbate, rather than to alleviate, state insecurities pertaining to risk, citizenship, and border (in) security.
