1 +====I affirm, resolved: A just government ought to recognize an unconditional right of workers to strike.====
2 +
3 +
4 +==Framework==
5 +
6 +
7 +====Ethics must begin from freedom:====
8 +
9 +
10 +====~~1~~ Principle of generic consistency – any action requires agents to be free to take action.====
11 +**Gewirth 84** Alan Gewirth, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Chicago, "Ontological Basis of Natural Law: A Critique and an Alternative," 1 June 1984, Oxford Academic, accessed 3 November 2021, pg. 118-119, https://academic.oup.com/ajj/article-abstract/29/1/95/158101?redirectedFrom=fulltext brackets for gender
12 +Let me briefly sketch the main line of argument that leads to this conclusion.
13 +AND
14 +consistency with the material consideration of the generic features and rights of action.
15 +
16 +
17 +====~~2~~ Agency is a precondition because ethics require people to be the cause of their action; we would not assign moral responsibility if the ability to act is compromised.====
18 +
19 +
20 +====~~3~~ Is-ought gap – ethics are derived from reason because experience only tells us about what is, not what ought to be – you can't derive prescriptive moral obligation from observation. ====
21 +
22 +
23 +====Next, there are two models of freedom. Non-interference asserts that freedom is violated if an agent restricts another's actions, whereas non-domination asserts that freedom is violated if an agent has the unequal power to restrict another's actions.====
24 +
25 +
26 +====Prefer non-domination:====
27 +
28 +
29 +====~~1~~ Non-interference allows for underlying coercion because agents condition themselves to appeal to their dominator.====
30 +**Lovett 06** Frank Lovett, Professor of Philosophy and Political Science at Washington University, "Republicanism," 19 June 2006, Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, accessed 26 October 2021, https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/republicanism/~~#ClaRepLib ~~ST~~ brackets for gender
31 +Even if we are willing to accept this conclusion, the non-interference view
32 +AND
33 +not its mere incidents—that I hated" (1855, 161).
34 +
35 +
36 +====~~2~~ Only non-domination can explain freedom as a power structure instead of a contingent outcome. ====
37 +**Pettit 05** Phillip Pettit, Professor of Politics and Human Values at Princeton University "The Domination Complaint," 2005, Nomos, Vol. 46, POLITICAL EXCLUSION AND DOMINATION, accessed 3 November 2021, pg. 110-111, https://www.jstor.org/stable/24220143 recut ~~ST~~
38 +The second point to make in underscoring the tie to community is that if people
39 +AND
40 +by those measures, being present just as soon as they are present.
41 +
42 +
43 +====Thus, the standard is consistency with freedom as non-domination.====
44 +
45 +
46 +====Prefer additionally:====
47 +
48 +
49 +====~~1~~ Actor specificity – individuals exist in communities, and communal governance always involves freedom restrictions, meaning only non-domination can weigh and be used by state actors.====
50 +
51 +
52 +====~~2~~ Performativity – a) freedom is key to argumentation. Abiding by their ethical theory presupposes we own ourselves, making it incoherent to justify a standard without willing ours. b) Debate as an institution is how we interact as a community, and ensuring the community is free of domination ensures everyone's voices are heard and is a prereq to debate. c) Moral conversation concedes the validity of universal moral respect.====

54 +If reason is the contingent achievement of linguistically socialized creatures, then the moral point
55 +AND
56 +the ideals of equality and the formation of prejudice towards "others."6
57 +
58 +
59 +====~~3~~ Resource disparities – focus on evidence puts small school debaters without huge files at a disadvantage, but my framework can be won without prep, which means it's theoretically preferable.====

65 +====The structure of employment dominates workers.====
66 +
67 +
68 +====~~1~~ Labor as an exchangeable commodity is inseparable from the freedom of the worker – strikes reclaim this freedom. ====
