Synopsis:

Elements of Parliamentary Debate: A Handbook is the first complete guide available to students on parliamentary debate. The brief handbook covers the basics of parliamentary debate in an easy-to-use and flexible format. Topics covered include debate preparation, resolution analysis, case construction, refutation, argumentation, and delivery and adjudication. As a text or supplement, Elements of Parliamentary Debate offers a handy reference guide to students, instructors and coaches interested in, or now practicing, parliamentary debate.

From the Author: I hope you find the text helpful; contact me with questions.
I co-authored this text because I wanted my students to have access to a reader-friendly book that explained the theory and practice of the popular format for public argument known as parliamentary debate. While a primary audience for Elements is the student competing in organized debate competition, our intent was also to provide an explanation of this dynamic debate format to members of civic and political organizations seeking an interesting and constructive way to discuss significant issues. I hope you find the text helpful and informative. Please contact me with any questions, comments, or feedback! Larry Galizio lgalizio@pcc.edu
