This regime of restrictions on free speech uses military tactics to suppress open debate and political dissent, an extension of the state’s extralegal violence in the War on TerrorElmer 8 (Greg Elmer, associate professor of communication and culture at Ryerson University, PhD in communication from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, director of the Infoscape Research Lab at Ryerson University, Andy Opel, associate professor of communication at Florida State University, PhD in mass communication from the University of North Carolina, member of the International Communication Association, November 2008, "Preempting Dissent: The Politics of an Inevitable Future," pages 29-41) AND political compliance as it is a technique for reducing actual risks and dangers.

NovDec--1AC--Military UrbanismTournament: MinneApple | Round: 1 | Opponent: Collegiate KY | Judge: Murphy The advantage is Military UrbanismWe begin the 1ac with a story of terror— In an effort to fulfill modernity's foundational conquest, the marketized control of life itself, military doctrine invades the cityscape. Discplinary mechanisms are now the hallmark of civil society, blurring the ethical calculus of all by integrating into urban structuresClement 12 Policing is unique, — as the disciplinarians of the urban cityscape, they utilize overarching claims of terror to blur the line between military violence and peacekeeping, legitimating the use of violence as a form of neocolonizationKRASKA 09 professor and senior research fellow, college of justice and strategy @ Eastern Kentucky University 2009 (Peter, "Militarization and Policing – It's Relevance to 21st Century Police", Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice, Vol 1, Issue 4, p.1-2 note://// indicates par. breaks) CS Indeterminacy is our internal link—The lynchpin of the polices power comes from qualified immunity-it absolves the sovereign from accountability in unknowability as a tactic to curb citizen agencyDe Stefan 16, Lindsey ~J.D.

Paper 850. http://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/850 CS The advent of these structures represents the cessation of our moral agency to the state—complacency in these mechanisms means that structures within the law like qualified immunity serve to diffuse conflict between citizens and the state- trapping us into a neverending cycle of endorsing violent subjectivitiesHassel 85 The impact is endless warfare—-the security state has resulted in a new politics of military urbanism that extends warfare into the battlespace, with no beginning or end, and where everyone is a target.Graham 12, Professor of Cities and Society at Newcastle University, January 2012, "When Life Itself is War: On the Urbanization of Military and Security Doctrine," International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 36.1, pgs. 136 – 155, AJX And this doctrine calls for the end of the public sphere – the collapse of citizen agency necessitates violent forms of moral conceptions demanding the extermination of the otherScheper-Hughes and Bourgois '4 Plan TextThus the plan text: The USFG should Remove the "clearly established" standard, which holds that police officers are entitled to qualified immunity as long as the law they broke was not clearly establishedSam Wright 15 ~(Sam Wright, public interest lawyer who has spent his career exclusively in nonprofits and government) Want to Fight Police Misconduct?

SeptOct--1AC-- Nuclear CoorporatismTournament: Voices RR | Round: 2 | Opponent: West Valley JW | Judge: Steele 1ACTop Level====Nuclear power is a corporate sham – we are fed a narrative that presents it as the inevitable future because of its cost-efficiency – when in fact nuclear power is neither cost-effective nor safe – this fixation on profit is the root cause of environmental destruction==== This rationalist paradigm strips individuals of genuine political choice – a neoliberal political paradigm is presented as the only option because it is supposedly the most cost-efficient one. This depoliticization of economic policy reduces politics to a choice between two managers of the same policy preferences that are immune to questioning.Hay 06 ~Colin, Professor of Political Analysis at University of Sheffield "The normalizing role of rationalist assumptions in the institutional embedding of neoliberalism" Tandf Online 21 Aug 2006~ AT ImpactNeolib itself is not intrinsically bad – but an ideological commitment to it that is seen as beyond question certainly is – clinging to this dying system results in civilization collapse and structural violenceBednarz 13 ~(Dan, Sociologist, has worked in academic public health, Associate Director of the Center for Public Health Practice at the University of Pittsburgh, has lectured at the university level in business strategy, organizational studies, sociology, and policy analysis) "Power, Identity and Social Change as We Enter Degrowth" Health After Oil, August 12~ AT SolvencyThus, I advocate a repoliticization of economic policy that begins with a country-wide opposition and boycott to the production of nuclear power.Personal political action is key – this act of defiance affirms the power of individual choice in the face of market forces that attempt to quell personal agencyRobert V. Kozinets and Jay Handelman (1998) ,"Ensouling Consumption: a Netnographic Exploration of the Meaning of Boycotting Behavior", in NA - Advances in Consumer Research Volume 25, eds. Joseph W. Alba and J. Wesley Hutchinson, Provo, UT : Association for Consumer Research, Pages: 475-480. And the aff is prior question, revealing our choice in the neoliberal paradigm and deconstructing its rationalist assumptions are a prerequisite to generating any solutionHay 06 ~Colin, Professor of Political Analysis at University of Sheffield "The normalizing role of rationalist assumptions in the institutional embedding of neoliberalism" Tandf Online 21 Aug 2006~ AT FramingThe Role of the judge is to vote for the debater that best deconstructs neoliberal norms.The role of the ballot is to endorse the approach that best challenges the normalization of neolib. The debate should focus not on the consequences of the aff advocacy, but on what ideology the advocacy affirms. You should vote aff not because a boycott of nuclear power causes a decrease in neoliberalism, but because a boycott represents an ideological challenge to neolib.This is the only viable strategy to resist coorporatization – using the debate space to question the ideological foundations of neolib is necessary to challenge itGiroux, PhD, 2005 And this is preferable to policy education—Criticism comes first – acting as advisors to policy-makers prevents a true intellectual spaceSteele, 10 – Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Kansas Refusal to question neoliberalism spills over to the real world—our refusal to question market norms imbues norms of fairness and education with neoconservative ideologyGiroux 4 (Henry, professor of Cultural Studies at McMaster University, "Public Pedagogy and the Politics of Neo-liberalism: making the political more pedagogical" Policy Futures in Education, Volume 2, Number 3 and 4, 2004) | 1/12/17 |
