Description: Ethics Bowl is a debate variant practiced in elementary schools through retirement communities, from college classrooms to coffee shops, from Tennessee to Tasmania, where “for” and “against” positions are not assigned. Instead, teams are given the freedom (and responsibility) to decide for themselves what makes the most sense on tough moral and political issues, and tasked with making a reasoned, sincere case supporting their view. Ethics Bowl is becoming more popular every year, but is still comparatively rare. Yet the world is becoming more divided and violent by the day. So one purpose of this book is to inspire existing Ethics Bowlers to become bolder champions. We possess a partial antidote to the rancor and hubris threatening the foundations of civil society. No more pretending Ethics Bowl is just another extracurricular, no better than pickleball or 4-H. Time to put the good of the many above our inhibitions and start telling the world. That SuperSocrates character on the cover? That’s every Ethics Bowl organizer, judge, moderator, case writer, and coach. That’s you! Head up, shoulders back, rescue mode engaged.
