What is Alternative Justification?
a debate theory that contends that an argument can be defended with multiple propositions, only one of which needs to be defended in the last instance. The affirmative can run an alternate justification case by reading multiple plans in the hope that one of the plans will prove that the resolution is a good idea. The negative can use this theory by providing multiple alternatives to a given part of the resolution (a series of agents that are better than the resolutional agent) and using any one of those alternatives to dejustify the resolution.
