A. Problem/Solution – The 1AC logic of problematizing the world and
providing a solution through an increase in public health assistance to
Africa engages in technological thinking that enframes things as problems
or solutions, degrading everything on earth to something of calculative
value.Korous 97 (George, Yale Law Graduate, Copeland Winner, Become What
You Are, p. 19)
Problemization is very similar to...the representation of the problem.
The affs call crisis based politics engages in a type of thinking that
reduces all life on earth to a tool to be instrumentalized, further
disconnecting ourselves from what it means to be.
Swazo 2 (Norman, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Alaska,
"Crisis Theory and World Order: Heideggerian Reflections," p 110-11)
The inevitability of such a fight issues from the pathology of
nihilism...and which finds its instrument in technocracy.
Engaging in hegemonic power politics reduces all life to a standing
reserve with no connection to being, won't solve, and spawns global
violence.
Swazo 2 (Norman, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Alaska,
"Crisis Theory and World Order: Heideggerian Reflections," p 114-15)
For Huntington this international order does not entail Westernization of
the world...service of this economy. ..." (Will to Power, note 866).
B. Continued domination of technological thought risks extinction through
global conflict and the deterioration of Earth. Meditative thought is
crucial to preventing inevitable planetary destruction.
Swazo 2 (Norman, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Alaska,
"Crisis Theory and World Order: Heideggerian Reflections," p 157-60)
The grounding question claims us today...an `earthly-temporal' is
transformed.
C. Alternative – Vote negative to reject this instance of technological
thought––the Affirmative's conception of the world is shaped by
technological ordering and must be interrogated.Korous 97 (George, Yale
Law Graduate, Copeland Winner, Become What You Are , p. 22-25)
The thought that habits critique is not bent on achieving quick and
efficient solutions...one's ontological situation, that is, what constitutes reality.

It’s K We recognize that Buber’s rhetoric is sexist. We do not affirm any of his gendered language. The affirmative’s deployal of the term “its” brings into existence the I-it relationship. This term necessarially separates I-it, reducing objects to pure calculability. Buber, 37 (Martin, I and Thou, 15-17) This separation is unique to ‘it.’ This term separates the relation of the human body from the surrounding world. In ‘it’ the ‘I’ definition ally comes before the ‘it,’ establishing a barrier between subject and object. Buber, 37 (Martin, I and Thou, 37-39) The separation of people from institutions is uniquely bad. Life is reduced to nothingness. Institutions act only in the exterior goal based realm while the realm of feelings is within. Only rejecting their separation embraces the eternal center, the area of life. Buber, 37 (Martin, I and Thou, 62-66) The impact is the total abjuration of life. The separation of institutions ie.the United States federal government allows for a total oppressive control of death. This manifests itself in the levers of economics, or the uncontrollable rise of tyranny. Piecemeal institutional reforms are not enough, nothing can substitute the unified relation with the center. Buber, 37 (Martin, I and Thou, 67-70)
Consult Japan
Relations are stretched to the brink due to lack of consultation

Japan would say yes—they support African aid and want a Security Council seat.
