Round 4: Hello Heintz

Info slide;

Heinz’s wife is terminally ill. A researcher invented a medicine which has a high possibility to cure, but it is extremely expensive as it costs 10 times more than the cost that is required to make the medicine. He tried to gather the money by every measure possible, and got ½ of the money required. He then negotiated with a researcher (including an offer to pay the rest later) but the researcher rejected by saying he wants to make money out of it as he developed it. Without the medicine, Heinz’s wife will die for sure very soon.

Motion:

Assuming he stole the medicine, THW not press criminal charges against Heinz.

 

Pre-Semi Final: Interesting International Issues

THBT Israel’s ground invasion into Gaza is justified.

 

Semi Final: My Minor

THW grant minors the right to euthanasia without the need of parental consent.

 

Grand Final: Right Right

Info slide:

The right to be forgotten is a concept that has been discussed and put into practice in the EU in the context of the internet (such as social networking sites / search engines). The issue has arisen from the desires of some individuals to “determine the development of his life in an autonomous way, without being perpetually or periodically stigmatized as a consequence of a specific action performed in the past”.

Motion: 

THW recognize the individual’s right to be forgotten.
