The Affirmative’s management by extraction is part and parcel of a long history of systematic energy violence, exploitation, and securitization– ultimately marking the indigenous populations surrounding the resources a threat to energy security that must be contained.

The Affirmative identifies Mexico as an uncivilized, non-law abiding land with a lack of rule of law.  Their prescription is to export the American system of law, through international organizations like the ILO, to “civilize” Mexican law.  This is a neoliberal intervention which recreates a colonial form of legal dominiance.

Within this framework, Western law has ... weak concept of ‘rule of law’.

The exportation of Western law to countries like Mexico represents a form of neo-colonial empire.  The use of international organizations like the ILO is a tool to subtly extort Mexico into complying with Western legal systems.

International politics are in need of an overhaul because of gendered relations between the United States and Latin America. The AFFs economic engagement is locked into an unquestioned system of machismo that inevitably fails

In the face of extinction the affirmative proposes another miracle economic engagement rooted in total economic rationality and obedience to the pre-prescribed notions of IR and globalization-~--this action and omission dismisses feminist criticism and women from economics-~--the “good ‘ole boys club” of masculine economics guarantees ecocide, poverty, and sexism-~--creating a new, feminist theory of economics and IR is key to avert extinction

I have shown that the individual... of the earth and its resources. 

And the AFF’s gendered security discourse causes inevitable violence. Regardless of PLAN’s purpose – their masculine epistemology relies on a logic of conflict that ignores structural violence. The feminization of the Other through security causes all future policy making to fail.
