SETTING UP THE DEBATE
TYPE OF MOTION

PROPOSAL VALUE JUDGEMENT


○ There is a problem that requires a solution. ○ Debating whether a phenomenon brings
benefit or harm
○ Example :
○ THW Intervene North Korea ○ Example :
○ THBT Parenting right should be contingent ○ TH Regrets the rise of consumerism
upon completing primary education ○ THBT Supreme court judges should be
popularly elected

NOTE :
• Just because it is a value judgment debate doesn’t mean it doesn’t need to
have mechanism.
• Just because it is a proposal debate doesn’t mean it doesn’t need a philosophy/
principle argument
DEFINITION
○ Giving definition does not mean you have to translate each word of the motion
based on the dictionary. Defining a motion means you give a clear explanation
what the debate is about.
○ Definition can be given in few ways :
○ Translating key words into a more understandable words; e.g. TH Celebrates the rise of
Feminist Cult ; TH Regrets the decline of highly-integrated family
○ Providing picturization of the problem or the phenomenon and what you will do
(solution/stance); e.g. THW Intervene in Syria
○ Clarify room of debate or limitation ; specify where or when this debate takes
place, but this doesn’t mean you have to be very specific. You have to be as
general as possible.
A definition is unfair and can be
challenged if :

DEFINITION ○ Undebatable; e.g. THW Ban abortion


○ Self-proofing; e.g. THBT Technologies
CHALLENGE bring more harm than good
○ Has no link to the motion; THBT Israel
should give up the West Bank

ARGUMENT AND REBUTTAL 101
ARGUMENT

An argument can be philosophical or practical. Both arguments should be equally


valued by the adjudicator.
An argument should answer :
1. How is the argument true ?
○ In Practical Argument : explaining how the argument can work to achieve a
goal
○ In Philosophical Argument : explaining how there is a right or responsibility to
fulfill
2. Why is the argument important ?
Comparing why your argument is more important than opponent’s argument
REBUTTAL

○ Negation ; deny that their claim is correct


○ Neutralize ; explain why their concern also applicable on their case
○ Even if ; assuming their argument can work, why the outcome will
not be achieved the way they want it
Link back is to show :
• Why your argument is relevant to the
motion;

IMPORTANT ! • Which part of your previous speaker’s


case are you strengthening

LINK BACK • Which part of your opponent’s case


are you destroying

This can also be used to show why what


you have said is important for the debate.
PROPOSITION ○ CONCESSION on the context
○ So teams do not need to debate
FIAT upon agreeable points/context
○ Whip brings a completely new
rebuttal to the case that has been
strongly explained by the LO/PM that
LATE has no link to the case brought by
the Member
REBUTTAL ○ Whip brings a new argument that has
no link to the case brought by the
Member
