ND21 - NC - Practical ReasonTournament: Glenbrooks Speech and Debate Tournament | Round: 1 | Opponent: Millburn MM | Judge: Andrew Qin I negate the resolution: Resolved, a just government ought to recognize an unconditional right of workers to strike.The metaethic is constitutivism – ethics must be derived from immutable features of agencyEthics motivated internally fail since they don't generate universal obligations. Ethics motivated externally fail since they generate nonbinding obligations and beg the question of why these obligations exist and why we care. Constitutivism solves because agency is definitionally universal and binding – it's inescapable.Practical reason is constitutive of agency – you can shift between different identities, but the only temporally constant feature is your ability to choose. Attempting to escape practical reason is incoherent because you use practical reason to choose to escape it – that's circular.Violating freedom is non universalizable and thus causes a contradiction in conception.Engstrom ~Stephen Engstrom, (Professor of Philosophy @ the University of Pittsburgh) "Universal Legislation as the Form of Practical Knowledge" http://www.academia.edu/4512762/Universal_Legislation_As_the_Form_of_Practical_Knowledge, DOA:5-5-2018 recut~ And, All agents must accept the state as necessary to enforce rights claims.Ripstein 04 ~Arthur Ripstein, (University Professor of Law and Philosophy, University of Toronto) "Authority and Coercion" Philosophy and Public Affairs, 32: 2–35, 2004, http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1467-6486.2004.00003.x/abstract, DOA:12-16-2017 WWBWrecut~ Thus the standard is consistency with the system of equal and outer freedom.Prefer additionally:~1~ Solves oppression because it is caused by arbitrary exclusion of others – only universalizability makes sure that we include everyone equally. Farr 02Farr, Arnold. Can a Philosophy of Race Afford to Abandon the Kantian Categorical Imperative? 2002, blog.ufba.br/kant/files/2009/12/Can-a-Philosophy-of-Race-Afford-to-Abandon-the.pdf. from ben ~2~ Consequentialism fails – A~ Induction fails – 1. saying that induction works relies on induction itself because it assumes that past trends will continue, which means it's circular and unjustified 2. It assumes specific causes of past consequences which can't be verified as the actual cause B~ Butterfly effect - every action has infinite consequences so it is impossible to evaluate an action; one government policy could end up causing nuclear war in a million years. C~ Aggregation is impossible – pleasure and pain are subjective – we have no idea how many headaches equal a migraine D~ Infinite obligations – I have infinite obligations to maximize pleasure with no way to order them which freezes action.~3~ A priori ethics are the only stable epistemology –a~ Cartesian Skep – there's no way of verifying the truth of our experience since we could be getting tricked by an evil demon. Only a priori ethics avoid this because they are not derived empiricallyb~ Uncertainty – every person has different experiences so we can't have a unified perspective on the good if we have different conceptions of it. Aggregation doesn't solve because there will be times it fails.c~ Prerequisite – in order to interpret space around us we need to represent it in the a priori.~4~ Practical reason hijacks –a~ Regress – any principle can be infinitely questioned which proves its base non-binding but only reason solves because when you question something you concede to the authority of reasonb~ Action theory – any action can be split into infinite smaller actions. When I am moving my arm it is infinitely small connected movements. Only the intentionality of the action can solves meaning intentions outweigh.c~ Hijacks – when we set ends we attempt to achieve what is good, so we must regard the capacity to set and pursue ends as intrinsically valuable.Negate:~1~ Strikes fail to fulfill dutyFourie 17 Johan Fourie 11-30-2017 "Ethicality of Labor-Strike Demonstrates by Social Workers" https://www.otherpapers.com/essay/Ethicality-of-Labor-Strike-Demonstrates-by-Social-Workers/62694.html (Johan Fourie is professor of Economics and History at Stellenbosch University.)
