Bolivarian Revolution KTournament: Niles Township | Round: 1 | Opponent: HoFlo CM | Judge: Ryan, Nierman Movements aligned against Western modernity are succeeding now in Latin America, but it’s tenuous. The plan reverses the trend, causes ecological destruction, and exacerbates the harms of the 1AC. Rejecting their method is a prior question.Escobar ’10 Development renders entire populations disposable and risks extinctionAlvares ’92 The alternative is to vote negative – this signifies a radical break with coloniality that legitimizes alternative forms of knowledgeEscobar ’10 | 10/10/13 |
CIL CPTournament: University of Michigan | Round: 3 | Opponent: Pace FG | Judge: Struth, Matt 1NC – CubaText: In the next available test case, the federal judiciary should find and durably rule that the United States federal government is obligated to rescind the Cuban Democracy Act, the Helms-Burton Act, and any and all other commercial, economic and/or financial sanctions against Cuba on the grounds of customary international law. We’ll clarify.The embargo violates the right to develop component of customary international law – the Supreme Court should strike it downManchak 10 Application of customary international law’s inevitable – but applying it in direct contravention to existing precedent is key to the legitimacy of the doctrineKundmueller – Masters Political Theory – ’2 The embargo’s a key test case to establish lasting incorporationPorotsky ’95 Impact’s extinctionDamrosch and Mullerson ’95 | 11/4/13 |

Substantial is meaningful with firm basisWordNet, 6 (WordNet® 3.0, © 2006 by Princeton University. Dictionary.reference.com/ browse/substantial) Substantial, adjective B.

FWTournament: Niles Township | Round: 3 | Opponent: Groves CP | Judge: Holsted, Philip A. Interpretation and Violation: The affirmative claims they should win the debate for reasons other than the consequences of the plan were it to be done by the federal government. They should only get offense based on the effects of the plan, not abstractions that are loosely tied to the 1AC.1. "Resolved" means debate should be a legislative forumArmy Officer School ’4 2. The United States is the country composed of the 50 statesEncarta ’7 3. The federal government is the government in Washington DC – not its individual membersAHD ’2 4. "Should" means the debate is solely about a policy established by governmental meansEricson ’3 5. Substantial means substanceMW ’8 Vote negative –A. Decision-making – a limited topic with equitable ground is key to our ability to advocate for things inside and outside of the contest round.

"Latin America’s Response to Neoliberalism and Globalization," http://www.nuso.org/upload/articulos/3506_2.pdf) The impact is extinction – neoliberalism reduces existence itself to property to be exchanged, producing a drive to a single way of knowing and being – that causes massive structural violence and environmental destructionLANDER ’2, Just as resources formerly considered to be commons, or of communal use, were The alternative is to vote negative to reject neoliberal knowledge production and endorse globalization from below. Refusing neoliberalism’s hegemonic control over knowledge production is essential within the space of this debate – the alternative aligns the ballot with Latin American resistance movementsCHOI ET AL 4 Many critics have begun to wonder why hamburgers and jeans can be globalized, but | 10/10/13 |
