World Police Debate: Ian Bremmer (7 of 14)

The motion: "America should be the world's policeman"

Moderator: Morley Safer
Speaking for the motion: Max Boot, Michael Mandelbaum and Douglas Murray
Speaking against the motion: Ian Bremmer, Ellen Laipson and Matthew Parris

IQ2US marks the launch of Oxford-style debating -- one motion, one moderator, three advocates for the motion, three against -- in New York City. Each evening begins at 6:00P with a complimentary cocktail period. As you enter the theater before the debate starts at 6:45P, you cast your vote for or against the evening's motion. Those results are displayed midway through the debate as each side makes its statements. After all six panelists speak, the audience has a chance to ask the speakers questions and vote again. The debate finishes with brief summations from the panelists, the votes are tallied and a winning side is declared.
