SO - DA - InnovationTournament: Grapevine | Round: 1 | Opponent: McNeil AR | Judge: Favian Sun 2Pharma innovation is doing great now – answers all your warrants. Biopiracy key to innovationChen, Jim. "There's no such thing as biopiracy... and it's a good thing too." McGeorge L. Rev. 37 (2006): 1.As is true of roughly four-fifths of all known drugs, an effective pharmaceutical remedy for obesity is likely to be derived from a natural source.14 One plausible pharmacological candidate, the cactus Hoodia gordoniis, is prized for its appetite-suppressing, thirst-quenching, and awareness-heightening qualities. What the San people of South Africa have known for thousands of years about the plant they call "Xhoba" languished for three decades in the laboratories of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). 6 Pfizer Corporation eventually acquired the rights to a hoodia-derived compound called P57 (so named because it was the 57th chemical tested) and at one time planned to market a diet drug that would compete against currently available concoctions that rely on the troubled combination of ephedra and caffeine. 7 A safe, effective substitute, if successfully tested and marketed, would earn massive profits. "Purchasers of diet products are often 'pathetically eager' to obtain a slenderer figure."' 8 In July 2003, however, Pfizer withdrew from the project and discontinued clinical development of P57.' 9 The failure to exploit hoodia commercially mooted the immediate question of whether P57's developers owed the San people any compensation. As the stories of neem and the rosy periwinkle illustrate, however, demands for global justice hound almost every effort to extract agricultural or pharmaceutical value from the biological bounty of the developing world. ====Reducing IP protections chills future investment – even the perception of wavering commitment scares off companies.==== AND (accounting for 36 percent of all university patent awards in 2012). 13 ====RandD’s key to innovation – otherwise, future pandemics.==== AND such public health threats to an even greater extent under improved innovation conditions.

SO - T - ReduceTournament: Loyola | Round: 2 | Opponent: Harvard Westlake OF | Judge: Richard Li 1~ Interpretation - Reduce means permanent reduction – it’s distinct from "waive" or "suspend."Reynolds 59 (Judge (In the Matter of Doris A. Montesani, Petitioner, v. Arthur Levitt, as Comptroller of the State of New York, et al., Respondents ~NO NUMBER IN ORIGINAL~ Supreme Court of New York, Appellate Division, Third Department 9 A.D.2d 51; 189 N.Y.S.2d 695; 1959 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 7391 August 13, 1959, lexis) AND or degrade. The word "reduce" seems adequately to indicate permanency. 2~ Violation – the plan waives intellectual property protections temporarily, which is an indefinite suspension. That’s 1AC ~WTO Recommendation~ "a waiver from the implementation, application and enforcement".~Pre-empting the We Meet~ – Plan Text in a Vacuum is a useless guideline since words are contextually defined based on function – the only basis for determining Topicality should be if the implementation of the Plan as per their 1AC solvency evidence follows the directional meaning of the Topic’s intent – anything else allows the 1AR to re-contextualize what the Plan says forcing the 1NC to predict infinite 1AR spin since they’re not tied to their evidence.3~ Vote neg for limits and neg ground – re-instatement under any infinite number of conditions doubles aff ground – every plan becomes either temporary or permanent – you cherry-pick the best criteria and I must prep every aff while they avoid core topic discussions like reduction-based DAs which decks generics like Pharma Innovation and Bio-Tech.4~ Paradigm Issues –a~ Topicality is Drop the Debater – it’s a fundamental baseline for debate-ability.b~ Use Competing Interps – 1~ Topicality is a yes/no question, you can’t be reasonably topical and 2~ Reasonability invites arbitrary judge intervention and a race to the bottom of questionable argumentation.c~ No RVI’s - 1~ Forces the 1NC to go all-in on Theory which kills substance education, 2~ Encourages Baiting since the 1AC will purposely be abusive, and 3~ Illogical – you shouldn’t win for not being abusive. | 9/4/21 |
SO - Th - Spec - EnforcementTournament: Grapevine | Round: 1 | Opponent: McNeil AR | Judge: Favian Sun Interpretation – the Affirmative must present a delineated enforcement mechanism for the Plan. There is no normal means since terms are negotiated contextually among member states.WTO No Date "Whose WTO is it anyway?" https://www.wto.org/english/thewto'e/whatis'e/tif'e/org1'e.htm Elmer AND , for example, influence a country’s policy by threatening to withhold credit. Violation: they don’tStandards1~ Shiftiness- They can redefine the 1AC’s enforcement mechanism in the 1AR which allows them to recontextualize their enforcement mechanism to wriggle out of DA’s since all DA links are predicated on type of enforcement i.e. sanctions bad das, domestic politics das off of backlash, information research sharing da if they put monetary punishments, or trade das.2~ Real World - Policy makers will always specify how the mandates of the plan should be endorsed. It also means zero solvency, absent spec, states can circumvent the Aff’s policy since there is no delineated way to enforce the affirmative which means there’s no way to actualize any of their solvency arguments.ESpec isn’t regressive or arbitrary- it’s an active part of the WTO is central to any advocacy about international IP law since the only uniqueness of a reduction of IP protections is how effective its enforcement isCi no rvis dtd 1nc theory first fairness and education | 9/10/21 |
