Appeals to democracy attempt to smooth over the divisions that make universal politics possible this makes criticisms of the economy prerequisites to meaningful democracy
Dean Professor of Political Science at Hobart and William Smith Colleges 2007 Jodi Democracy and Other Neo-Liberal Fantasies p 76 -77
Despite democracy's inability...responsive, left politics.3 The depoliticization of identity politics is the end of all politics – Capital controls and accounts for each identity
Zizek, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Social Studies, Ljubljana 1999 Slavoj, The Ticklish Subject, page 208-209
This is politics proper...effectively the end of politics proper. The unproblematized use of race as the frame for social relations ignores the complexity of oppression
Darder Prof of Education at Claremont, & Torres, Prof of Public Policy and Comp Latino Studies at CSU-Long Beach, 1999 Antonia and Rodolfo, Shattering the Race Lens, from Critical Ethnicity pages 180-181
As Morrison implies, unproblematized...in the class-room and beyond. Their focus on white supremacy ignores historical oppression – makes coalition building impossible – makes it impossible for them to access our alternative
Darder Prof of Education at Claremont, & Torres, Prof of Public Policy and Comp Latino Studies at CSU-Long Beach, 1999 Antonia and Rodolfo, Shattering the Race Lens, from Critical Ethnicity pages 184-185
What seems apparent in hooks's...and around the globe. Multiculturalism is global capitalism’s ideal ideology because it treats each local culture as a colonized people – this ideology is a form of paternal distanced racism which allows groups to assert their superiority to subcultures – global capitalism only incorporates this politicization until it becomes necessary to destroy it
Zizek, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Social Studies, Ljubljana 1999 Slavoj, The Ticklish Subject, page 216-217
And, of course, the ideal...exclusionary measures quashes it. The politics of affirmation produce a weak ontology that lacks the political moment necessary to produce a productive act. The aff divests the ability of politics to be oppositional. Our alternative is to embrace radical negativity and oppositional politics
Dean 2005 Jodi A politics of avoidance: the limits of weak ontology http://jdeanicite.typepad.com/i_cite/files/butler_and_ontology.doc
Some political theorists argue... illegal, diseased, disposable. Resisting this reliance on economic evaluation is the ultimate ethical responsibility – the current social order guarantees social exclusion on a global scale
Zizek and Daly 2k4 (Slavoj and Glyn, Conversations with Zizek page 14-16)
For Zizek it is imperative...in an otherwise sound matrix. The alternative is a meta-choice – saying no to the affirmative is an act of confrontational refusal which allows for complete withdraw from the system
Kunkle, Professor of Social Sciences at Vermont College, 2007 Sheila, International Journal of Zizek Studies, 1.3 http://zizekstudies.org/index.php/ijzs/article/view/59/118
This logic of parallax requires... the Law itself is excessive.

Despite the aff’s benign intentions, their employment of “democracy assistance” provides a smokescreen to the greater imperial project of solidifying militaristic and economic domination of those whom we “assist”. The aff is a bait and switch to distract from the double standards countries like Saudi Arabia benefit from.

Christianity exhorted religious masses...possession, industriousness, legality” (1974, 83). Enemy construction creates ever-expanding measures against ever present threats – the ideology of deterrence has extended from an ideology amongst nation states to one that can be extended to a Sole Madman – this ideology guarantees infinite violence in the international realm
Zizek in 2005 (Slavoj, In These Times, August 11, http://www.lacan.com/zizekiranian.htm)
Classic power functioned...as the desire for conquests. Security is founded on the ressentment of difference which strikes away at all that makes life worthwhile. Only through an embracement of the inevitability of difference and insecurity can we affirm life

The intractability of...total war by other means." In answer to the affirmative’s schizophrenic call to action, our alternative is to *Do nothing in the instance of the plan* This is an acceptance of the inevitability of pain and uncertainty and a refusal to struggle against it. This radical openness engenders an understanding that pain isn’t negative in and of itself and allows us to take joy in our pain.

Nietzsche Framework
- Tournament: GSU | Round: 1 | Opponent: Towson MO | Judge: Andy Casey
-
A) INTERPRETATION – The Aff must advocate a USFG policy that increases democracy assistance. - The topic is defined by the phrase following the colon—the USFG is the agent of the resolution, not the individual debaters
Webster’s Guide to Grammar and Writing 2k
Use of a colon before a list or an explanation that is preceded by a clause that can stand by itself. Think of the colon as a gate, inviting one to go one…If the introductory phrase preceding the colon is very brief and the clause following the colon represents the real business of the sentence, beginning the clause after the colon with a capital letter.
2. Resolved proves the framework for the resolution is to enact a policy.
Wordsand Phrases 1964Permanent Edition
Definition of the word “resolve,” given by Webster is “to express an opinion or determination by resolution or vote; as ‘it was resolved by the legislature;”It is of similar force to the word “enact,” which is defined by Bouvier as meaning “to establish by law”. 3.‘Should’denotes an expectation the aff will be enacted.
American Heritage Dictionary 2k
Used to express probability or expectation 4.The USFG is the government in Washington D.C.
Encarta Online Encyclopedia 2k http://encarta.msn.com
“The federal government of the United States is centered in Washington DC” B. Violation: The Aff doesn’t defend the USFG increasing democracy assistance C. Reasons to prefer - Competition
A. Its key to growth, our argument isn’t just fairness, we say debate should be a sight for antagonism
Yovel 03 Jonathan Yovel Yale Law School; University of Haifa - Faculty of Law Cardozo Law Review, Vol. 24, pp. 635-662, 2003 HALF-WRITTEN LAWS: NIETZSCHE AND LEGAL THEORY, Peter Goodrich and Mariana Velvedere, eds., Routledge 2005 http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=950742
While reactive forces respond...both natural and social. B. Arbitrary interpretations are inevitable and good; we must enforce and interpretations grounded in the community to allow for agonism
Ramaeker 01 STEFAN RAMAEKERS assistant professor at Laboratory for Education and Society Journal of Philosophy 0f Education, Vol. 35, No. 2, 2001 “Teaching to Lie and Obey: Nietzsche on Education “http:www.wehavephotoshop.com/PHILOSOPHY%20NOW/PHILOSOPHY/Nietzsche/Nietzsche%20On%20Education.pdf
Much as one values Nietzsche...particular point of view. 2. Extra T: Even if the Aff claims to expand visa policy they claim benefits from the personal advocacy which allows them unpredictable advantages like spike outs. Independent voter for competitive equity. 3. Ground rooted in tradition is a prerequisite to political engagement—
Arendt, 2k5 (Hannah, The Promise of Politics , p. 41-2)
It lies in the nature...all spheres of modern life. 4. Aff conditionality: The affirmative’s advocacy statement is unclear whether or not it includes USFG action. This allows 2AC clarification which destroys our ability to get stable offence in the 1NC. Any uncertainly over whether they meet our interpretation is not a risk that they meet but a reason to reject for Aff conditionality. Independent voter for competitive equity. 5. We shouldn’t ascribe a telos to debate. It doesn’t change anything in the real world all the education can be gained from reading, the value to debate is the aesthetics of the struggle
Lane 96 Robert D. Lane, Classics, Philosophy, and Religious Studies/ Institute of Practical Philosophy Vancouver Island University “The Absurd Hero” http://records.viu.ca/www/ipp/absurd.htm
Sisyphus is the absurd... and not to abstractions or 'absolutes'.

These are small external K's that we have read. Sometime we read these on case in the 1NC and sometimes we read them in the block. *Determinism K*
Every action is either caused or uncaused. If an action is caused then we are not responsible for it because we could not have done otherwise. If an action is uncaused then it is simply random and we are not responsible for it either. You have no responsibility to prevent the aff's impacts - vote Neg on presumption.

Third reason. In our techno-scientifico-militaro-diplomatic...would be a grand premiere appearance. *Islamic Reps K*

Appeals to democracy attempt to smooth over the divisions that make universal politics possible this makes criticisms of the economy prerequisites to meaningful democracy
Dean Professor of Political Science at Hobart and William Smith Colleges 2007 Jodi Democracy and Other Neo-Liberal Fantasies p 76 -77
Despite democracy's inability...responsive, left politics.3 Focus on subjective violence and easily identifiable flashpoints of conflict misses the boat – only focusing on the background or objective violence can solve root cause – cannot be viewed from the same stand point – the call to act will be strong but responding creates a stop-gap which prevents engaging in criticisms of capital
Zizek 2008 Slavoj Violence p 1-4
If there is a unifying thesis...respect towards its victims. Capital is the root cause of all of their impacts – you should denounce their simply relationship with violence because the system of capital produces the material reality which makes violence inevitable

Negation Counter Advocacy

We should negate the medical model of disability. Externalizing ethics onto institutions is the worst form of violence because it exonerates individuals of responsibility for their relationship with the other which allows institutional violence across the board.
