slcathena 629 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 Latin America was the best, too bad it's gone. How lame. Agreed. *sigh.* The developing economics debate and US heg in the region debates alone would have made that killer. Not to mention the fact that I had already dusted off my already cut copy of Deterring Democracy for the occassion. *sigh* Africa is the next best, the only problem I see with it is that it limits the debate almost too much, the wording is good but it takes out quite a few areas that I really would have loved to debate on (issues of the 4th world, the blood diamond trade, etc.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andromeda 137 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 i was really hoping for LA, wtf. the FT debate would have rocked, and i heard more about africa and national service last year than i ever want to. just one night of a few 3-minute speeches on nat'l service sucked, but a whole year of policy debate? africa might not be too bad, but i'd get sick of the malthus stuff too - that was another one of our congress reses. hopefully 07-08 will be better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DB8T 253 Report post Posted November 8, 2005 What happens to LA anyway? I would guess Latin America will be one of the papers presented to the Topic Selection Meeting in August. The following year will be a mandatory international topic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
