Personalism is a 20th-21st century philosophy grounded in the axiomatic dignity of the human person. Articulated in the aftermath of the horrors of WWII, Personalism seeks to help form a society that seeks the good of each human person as a dialogical creature possessing inherent dignity. Josh has written on personalism for the Acton Institute; that article can be found here. This paradigm may be helpful for prepping the 2019 Sept/Oct LD resolution (Resolved: In the United States, colleges and universities ought not consider standardized tests in undergraduate admissions decisions).
