Chattahoochee (All Teams) – NegativeCanada CP-Canada has unique advantages in Africa the make aid effective CCA 04 Canadian Council on Africa (Brief #1, "Canada & Africa Matching Reputation With Action in the 21st Century", Canadian Council on Africa, September) Since the 1960s African independence era, … resources is certainly a model that many African states wish to replicate. Heidegger-A. The Aff's desire to control the world by acting upon it creates a managerial utopia that transforms the world into a stockpile of resources robbed of value. McWhorter 92 Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Northeast Missouri State University (Ladelle, Heidegger and the Earth, p. 5-7) "Every academic discipline, whether it be biology or history … subjective existence in our age." B. Devaluation of life through loss of being is a fate worse than nuclear war Zimmerman 94 Professor of Philosophy at Tulane University (Michael, Contesting Earth's Future, p. 119-120) "Heidegger asserted that human self-assertion, combined with … lessened because they were never "disclosed" by humanity." C. Vote neg to reject our will to mastery and refuse the technological drive to act as the world's savior. Only when we allo things to disclose themselves can we free ourselves from the totalizing grasp of technology and reconnect with our being. Sikorski 93 Independent Scholar of Technology and former Assistant Professor at New Mexico State University (Wade, Modernity and Technology: Harnessing the Earth to the Slavery of Man) "But the fact that we are imprisoned in the world reason … an archytecture that commands them forth in a totality as man's utility." Nietzsche-Attempts to eradicate suffering are pointless due to its inevitable nature. By focusing on suffering as a negative aspect of life, the aff creates a hatred for life that makes it no longer worth living while demeaning the sufferer turning the case. Kain 07 professor of philosophy at University of Santa Clara (Nietzsche, Eternal Recurrence, and the Horror of Existence, the Journal of Nietzsche Studies, muse) "We have seen that in Nietzsche's opinion we cannot … in opposition to the meaning he has succeeded in imposing on it." Politics-we usually read specific links. we've mostly been reading law of the sea. College Prep CH – Affirmative – Liberia DDT/MalariaCONTENTION ONE: INHERENCY Malaria funding has been cut and relief agencies are leaving Liberia resulting in millions of deaths and pushing the country towards a meltdown and resumption of the civil war Doyle 07 (Leonard-, The Independent of London, January 3, p.22, lexis) “Beyond the veneer of civil society … we will do everything to get [the decision] reversed." The failure of the United States to embrace DDT spraying has made it virtually unavailable in sub-Saharan Africa Behreandt 06 (Dennis-, The New American, 9/4, proquest/e-library) “Fortunately, the means of stopping malaria … suggests its use ought to be limited.” Agencies Opposed To DDT Spraying Are Quietly Blocking It’s Use Bate 07 (Dr. Roger-, Resident Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, Wall Street Journal, November 5, p. A19) “Meanwhile, vast swathes … spraying in general shouldn’t be used.” CONTENTION TWO: MALARIA Liberia is in the midst of a horrifying malaria hyperendemic and they don’t have the resources to confront the massive scale of the problem Kinder 07 (Molly-, MA/ID pending at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, June 22,accessed 11/12/07, http://mollyinliberia.blogspot.com/2007/06/magic-bullet-for-liberias-children.html) “Above all, just one … Yet success is possible.” Malaria kills millions and infects hundreds of millions every year – lack of DDT spraying is allowing malaria to destroy whole African communities Wilson Quarterly 04 (7/1, proquest/e-library) “DDT is the single best weapon … which cripples African economies.” Malaria kills millions of people every year but we are doing nothing to stop it – using DDT would be a massive step in the right direction The Economist 03 (5/13, proquest/e-library) “If seven Boeing 747s… and prompts others to stay away.” Malaria kills millions every year in Liberia Barber 07 (Kari-, Voice of America, April 25, downloaded 11/07, http://www.voanews.com/english/archive/2007-04/2007-04-25-voa14.cfm?renderforprint=1&textonly=1&&TEXTMODE=1&CFID=156837655&CFTOKEN=19484670) “Liberia was one of many … our main challenge in Liberia.” DDT is harmless – Failing to spray it causes millions of deaths Gourevitch 03 (Alexander-, Washington Monthly, 3/1, proquest/e-library) “In much of the world … millions of needless deaths.” Liberia lacks the DDT necessary to stop the spread of malaria Somah 06 (Syrulwa-, PhD and Professor of of Environmental and Occupational Safety and Health at NC A&T State University, Speech given in Monrovia, Liberia entitled “The Galvanizing Role of Liberian Women In National Reconstruction,” September 9th, downloaded 11/07, http://www.grandgedeh.com/gg-lihede16.htm) “The main concern … any malaria regions in Africa.” We would never tolerate the level of death and suffering occurring from malaria in Africa if it were happening in the United States – are you really all right with what’s happening in your name? Spencer 06 (Roy, Human Events, 08-14, proquest/e-library) “The United States and much of the rest … would be used to combat it.” THUS THE PLAN: The United States federal government should establish public health infrastructure and programs in the Republic of Liberia that facilitate and conduct the indoor spraying of Dichloro-Diphenyl-Trichloroethane. CONTENTION THREE: SOLVENCY Only DDT can both kill and repel mosquitoes – no other pesticide is effective Roberts 07 (Dr. Donald-, emeritus professor of tropical medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Maryland, International Herald Tribune, 8/22, proquest/e-library) “DDT, the miracle insecticide … malaria fighter we have.” U.S. action carries with it a unique multiplier effect which turbo charges our solvency Bate 05 (Roger, US Director – Africa Fighting Malaria, Congressional Testimony, 5/12, proquest/e-library) “Before examining how USAID … than its Congressional earmark.” Expertise and resources make the United States the most important nation to support the fight against malaria – We must provide more support Campbell 05 (Carlos-, Program Director – MACEPA, Congressional Testimony, 5/12, proquest/e-library) ncp “The US Government and institutions … bilateral assistance program.” Only USAID has the transparency and planning to effectively implement the plan – Other organizations just throw money at the problem without changing anything. Tren and Urbach 07 (Richard and Jasson, Promises Promises and Donor Aid Money, Africa Fighting Malaria, http://www.fightingmalaria.org/article.aspx?id=870, Directors of AFM) “The reality is that … poorer taxpayers in rich countries.” Within this framework there is an ethical obligation to improve the health conditions of those living in developing countries Van Niekerk 05 (Anton-, Professor of Philosophy and Director of the Centre for Applied Ethics at University of Stellenbosch, Ethics & AIDS In Africa: The Challenge To Our Thinking, edited by Van Niekerk and Loretta Kopelman, p. 91-93) ncp “Not only is there no comparison … makes both moral and strategic sense.” The failure to act ethically and the prioritization of individual desires at the cost of the Other shape politics in action in a way that ensure all violence. Violence is inevitable within the current framework – only moving beyond it can result in peace. Alford 04 (Fred, Levinas And Political Theory, Political Theory v32 n2 April 2004, Prof of Gov at the University of Maryland) “Second, the image of the state of nature… beyond both state and nature.” Directory: file -> view view -> Western Europe after wwii view -> Author study: paul fleischman view -> Qpa1 7ela study Guide view -> Arctic Oil/Gas Neg view -> November 1970 Approximately 150,000-500,000 deaths Bhola Cyclone Bangladesh view -> Grade Level: 6 Unit of Study: Caribbean glce view -> Citation: Duffield, Katy view -> Table of Contents Lesson # view -> Chinese Wind Energy Disad Download 2.81 Mb.
