TDI - T - AppropriationTournament: TDI Camp Tournament | Round: 4 | Opponent: Larpers BF | Judge: Felicity Park Interpretation: "appropriation of outer space" as a term of art by private entities refers to the exercise of exclusive and permanent control of space.TIMOTHY JUSTIN TRAPP, JD Candidate @ UIUC Law, '13, TAKING UP SPACE BY ANY OTHER MEANS: COMING TO TERMS WITH THE NONAPPROPRIATION ARTICLE OF THE OUTER SPACE TREATY UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS LAW REVIEW ~Vol. 2013 No. 4~ Common usage also concludes appropriation is the taking of or exercise of control over propertyBohm 13 ~JEFF BOHM, Chief Judge. In re Cowin, 492 B.R. 858 (Bankr. S.D. Tex. 2013).~ TDI

Teleprompter Manhattan CATV Corp., 458 US 419 - Supreme Court 1982~ TDI Violation ¬– the aff bans commercial tourism by private entities, which both fails to establish sovereign possession over regions that are toured and fails to establish permanent appropriation since tours enter and leave regions in outer spaceVote neg:Limits – their interp explodes the topic to include affs about using space for any single purpose, like space-based solar power, helium and REMs on the Moon, military deployments, and climate adaptation satellites – this is unpredictable because topic lit is concerned with sovereignty over space and space colonization broadly, privileges the aff by stretching pre-tournament neg prep too thin and precludes nuanced case negs that rigorously test the affPrecision first – Justifies the aff arbitrarily doing away with words in the resolution which gives way to affs about anything from public appropriation affs to air space affs and many more which obliterates negative prep.Ground – allowing debates about extracting any space resource denies the neg links to core generics like space col good, which only answers affs that broadly prohibit states from using space – this kills testing and forces negatives to the fringes of argumentation like generic Ks that are stale and vulnerable to aff prep-outsFairness and education are voters – debate's a game that needs rules to evaluate it and education gives us portable skills for life like research and thinking.No RVIs – a) illogical – you shouldn't win for being fair – it's a litmus test for engaging in substance, b) norming – I can't concede the counterinterp if I realize I'm wrong which forces me to argue for bad norms, c) baiting – incentivizes good debaters to be abusive, bait theory, then collapse to the 1AR RVI, d) topic ed – prevents 1AR blipstorm scripts and allows us to get back to substance after resolving theory | 7/29/21 |
TDI - T - Appropriation vs MiningTournament: TDI Camp Tournament | Round: 5 | Opponent: Wheel AB | Judge: Julian Anderson Interpretation: "appropriation of outer space" by private entities refers to the exercise of exclusive control of space.TIMOTHY JUSTIN TRAPP, JD Candidate @ UIUC Law, '13, TAKING UP SPACE BY ANY OTHER MEANS: COMING TO TERMS WITH THE NONAPPROPRIATION ARTICLE OF THE OUTER SPACE TREATY UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS LAW REVIEW ~Vol. 2013 No. 4~ Private appropriation of extracted space resources is distinct from appropriation "of" outer space. Despite longstanding permission of appropriation of extracted resources, sovereign claims are still universally prohibited.Abigail D. Pershing, J.D. Candidate @ Yale, B.A. UChicago,'19, "Interpreting the Outer Space Treaty's Non-Appropriation Principle: Customary International Law from 1967 to Today," Yale Journal of International Law 44, no. 1 Violation ¬– the aff only bans private resource extraction through asteroid mining, which is limited in scope – that's distinct from full sovereignty over spaceVote neg:Limits – their interp explodes the topic to include affs about using space for any single purpose, like space-based solar power, helium and REMs on the Moon, space tourism, and climate adaptation satellites – this is unpredictable because topic lit is concerned with sovereignty over space and space colonization broadly, privileges the aff by stretching pre-tournament neg prep too thin and precludes nuanced case negs that rigorously test the affPrecision – Justifies the aff arbitrarily doing away with words in the resolution which gives way to affs about anything from public appropriation affs to air space affs and many more which obliterates negative prep.Ground – allowing debates about extracting any space resource denies the neg links to core generics like space col good, which only answers affs that broadly prohibit states from using space – this kills testing and forces negatives to the fringes of argumentation like generic Ks that are stale and vulnerable to aff prep-outsTopicality is a voting issue that should be evaluated through competing interpretations—it tells the negative what they do and do not have to prepare for. Reasonability is arbitrary and unpredictable, inviting a race to the bottom and we'll win it links to our offenseDrop the debater to deter future abuse and because the 2N doesn't get new disads to whole rez so it's permanently skewed.No RVIs—it's your burden to be fair and T—same reason you don't win for answering inherency or putting defense on a disad. | 7/29/21 |
