English

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

From German Kritik.

Noun

[edit]

kritik (plural kritiks)

  1. In formal debating, an argument that challenges a certain mindset or assumption made by the opposing team, often from the perspective of critical theory, rather than dealing directly with the topic under debate.
    • 2002, Kenneth T. Broda-Bahm, Perspectives in Controversy, page 300:
      Too much debate theory is based on power rather than reason. Kritiks are used as big sticks to avoid one of the duties closely associated with debating — research.
    • 2011, N. Andre Cossette, The Art of Debate: 12th Edition, page 123:
      You can make most theory answers without cards, but some cards do exist which specifically criticize kritiks on a theoretical basis.
