To review, a Counterplan is an argument read on the negative that proposes a different policy than the plan to solve the plan’s harms. There exist different types of counterplans that utilize unique mechanisms to attempt to solve the plan’s harms. Different types of counterplans test the affirmative from multiple angles. They question if it is necessary for the plan to solve their harms or if there are alternative ways to solve those issues.
