there are 4 people in a debating teamMore specifically two on each team; two on an affirmative and two on a negative; if you debate in policy debate. If you are debating in a Lincoln-Douglas Debate then there is only one person on the affirmative and one person on the negative.
In classical debate, the affirmative constructive speech is the first speech given by the team advocating for the resolution. It typically presents the team's arguments and sets the foundation for their case.
In a debate, the negative team is responsible for opposing the resolution or proposition put forth by the affirmative team. Their role involves challenging the arguments made by the affirmative, presenting counterarguments, and demonstrating why the resolution should not be accepted. The negative team aims to refute the affirmative's claims and provide evidence or reasoning that highlights the flaws or weaknesses in their position. Ultimately, their goal is to convince the judge or audience that the affirmative's case is unconvincing.
No the Negative doesn'thave to, but usually since the Negative team doesn't know the Affirmative's plan before the debate, the Negative will often run their argument on the stock issue Topicality which means the Affirmative's plan isn't inclusive in the resolution.
