SO - Security K V1Tournament: Jack Howe | Round: 3 | Opponent: Portola AS | Judge: Vanessa Nguyen Disease securitization and Health development strategies reinforce state imperialism and control, which justifies totalitarian control and preemptive conflictMacPhail 2009 (Theresa, medical anthropologist at the University of California, Berkeley "The Politics of Bird Flu: The Battle over Viral Samples and China's Role in Global Public Health," Journal of language and politics, 8:3, 2009) Hegemony invokes a permanent state of emergency that justifies our paranoid neurosis—the idea we need to deter invisible threats creates self-fulfilling prophecies makes war inevitableZizek 5—prof, Sociology, University of Ljubljana (Slavoj, Give Iranian Nukes a Chance, http://www.lacan.com/zizekiranian.htm) China threat discourse reduces the world to calculative strategy. Behaviors, histories, and possibilities that don't fit into the affirmative's worldview of stability and certainty are labeled threatening.Chengxin PAN IR @ Australian Nat'l '4 "The China Threat' in American Self-Imagination: The Discursive Construction of Other as Power Politics" Alternatives 29 p. 314-315 Their fixation on national interests and apocalyptic scenarios justifies endless violence, totalitarianism, and nuclear war—the alternative is to vote neg to endorse the 1AC without their securitizing representationsAhmed 12 Dr. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed is Executive Director of the Institute for Policy Research and Development (IPRD), an independent think tank focused on the study of violent conflict, he has taught at the Department of International Relations, University of Sussex "The international relations of crisis and the crisis of international relations: from the securitisation of scarcity to the militarisation of society" Global Change, Peace and Security Volume 23, Issue 3, 2011 Taylor Francis Our interpretation is that the judge should be an intellectual evaluating the methodology of the 1ac—-if we win the foundations of the aff are suspect we should win irrespective of hypothetical enactment – only the alternative investigates the methodology behind securitized logicReasons to Prefer:1. Epistemology comes first – we must think before we act – all of their truth claims are predicated off of a position of privilege and dominance which shapes their understanding of the world and discourse – because all actions depend on our understanding it must be correct for other actions to be considered correct2. Fiat is utopian – when the debate round is over, their aff won't be passed in the real world – but how they frame their impact spills over and affects their view of the world, which means their exaggerated impacts obscure the systemic inequalities present in the status quoAnd there's a double bind – either the aff's impacts are true and extinction is inevitable because fiat isn't real or their impacts are constructed, which means you should vote neg on presumptions on | 9/18/21 |
