British Parliamentary style debate is a common form of academic debate. It has gained support in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, India, Europe, Africa, Philippines, Australia, New Zealand and United States, and has also been adopted as the official style of the World Universities Debating Championship and European Universities Debating Championship. Speeches are usually five to seven minutes in duration. ==Terminology== Because of the style's origins in British parliamentary procedure, the two sides are called the ''Government'' (more commonly called "Proposition" in the United Kingdom) and ''Opposition''. The speakers are similarly titled: #Opening Government (''first faction''): ##''Prime Minister'' ##''Deputy Prime Minister'' #Opening Opposition (''second faction''): ##''Leader of the Opposition'' ##''Deputy Leader of the Opposition'' #Closing Government (''third faction''): ##''Member for the Government'' ##''Government Whip'' #Closing Opposition (''fourth faction''): ##''Member for the Opposition'' ##''Opposition Whip'' (Even though there are two teams of government or opposition, it does not mean they are on the same side, technically they are, but they still could not see each other's arguments and also, they are trying to knock each other out.) Speaking alternates between the two sides and the order of the debate is therefore: #''Prime Minister'' #''Leader of the Opposition'' #''Deputy Prime Minister'' #''Deputy Leader of the Opposition'' #''Member for the Government'' #''Member for the Opposition'' #''Government Whip'' #''Opposition Whip'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「British Parliamentary Style」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
