Practiced in elementary schools through retirement communities, from college classrooms to coffee shops, from Tennessee to Tasmania, Ethics Bowl is essentially gamified deliberative democracy. And the people who know it best believe it's a powerful way to rejuvenate democratic norms, curb political violence, and transform our culture.
Contrary to traditional debates, “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.
There's no need for spiteful attack. There's no requirement to pretend you alone possess the perfect, unassailable truth. Agreeing is OK. Admitting error is OK. Even changing your mind is OK (gasp!). Thoughtfulness, listening, a desire to learn rather than dominate—these are the refreshingly novel norms of Ethics Bowl.
While Ethics Bowl is becoming more popular every year, the world seems more divided by the day. So one purpose of Ethics Bowl to the Rescue! 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. That SuperSocrates character on the cover? That’s every Ethics Bowl organizer, judge, moderator, case writer, and coach. Head up, shoulders back, rescue mode engaged!
My second audience—arguably my most important audience—is the traditional debate community. Debaters, you’re the reason we’re here. I think we have shared interests, I think Ethics Bowl is a better way to teach confidence and advocacy, and I think you’ll find joining us enjoyable, easy, and more consistent with what you truly want. Thank you for being open to trying Ethics Bowl.
Ethics Bowl to the Rescue! is also for anyone interested in reasoned discussion, civic friendship, and mutual respect. This isn’t everyone. Experience suggests many (too many) prefer turmoil and drama. While I have great faith in humanity generally, we have to accept that some are locked in a tragic codependency with their perceived enemies. But to my fellow solution-oriented ambassadors of compassion and goodwill, my goal is to gain your nod and assent. The drama-lovers have a great deal of power and attention at the moment. But we do not have to accept the status quo.
The good news is that the main thing you’ll need to do is encourage friends and neighbors to check out the Ethics Bowl way. With enough of us planting seeds, the model will ultimately sell itself.
Ethics Bowl is neither a magic bullet nor a sure thing. But retreating to the shadows isn’t a responsible option, for we share the one solitary habitable planet.
So join us, the thousands of organizers, coaches, judges, moderators, participants, fans, and sponsors who’ve decided this Ethics Bowl thing is worth a try. For the stakes are high and the hour is late. Yet it’s Ethics Bowl to the rescue!

Diritto di recesso
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
