The Cross Examination Debate Association ( CEDA ) is the largest intercollegiate policy debate association in the United States.

Founded in 1971 as the Southwest Cross Examination Debate Association, CEDA is now the primary national association promoting policy topic intercollegiate academic debate.

In cooperation with the National Debate Tournament Committee and the American Debate Association, CEDA formulates the annual intercollegiate policy debate topic used in tournament competition throughout the nation.

In addition to sponsoring scholarly programs on issues of interest to association members at the annual convention of the National Communication Association, CEDA has organized two indigenous scholarly assessment conferences: The 1991 St. Paul 20th Anniversary Assessment Conference, and the 2001 Tahoe Conference on Academic Debate.

In 1996, the NDT and the American Debate Association agreed to employ the CEDA topic during their seasons, effectively unifying the organizations.

The CEDA failed to make the substantive electoral gains from 1933 to 1936 that were needed for it to form government which resulted in right-wing support draining from it and turning towards the belligerent Alfonsist monarchist leader José Calvo Sotelo.

Subsequently the CEDA abandoned its moderation and legalism and began providing support for those committed to violence against the republic, including handing over its electoral funds to the initial leader of the military coup against the republic, General Emilio Mola.

Between November 1934 and March 1935, the CEDA minister for agriculture, Manuel Gimenez Fernandez, introduced into parliament a series of agrarian reform measures designed to better conditions in the Spanish countryside.

The agrarian reform bill proved to be a catalyst for a series of increasingly bitter divisions within the Catholic right, rifts that indicated that the broad based CEDA alliance was disintegrating.

Among these were APDA's increasing popularity with debaters accustomed to high school on-topic ( NFL or CEDA ) formats, a notable incidence of poorly-written resolutions that were hard to debate even when squirreled, and the fact that at many schools, the supply of judges willing to sit through training sessions on the fine points of parliamentary style was not sufficient for increasingly larger tournaments.

Throughout the school year, CEDA sanctions over 60 tournaments throughout the nation, including an annual National Championship Tournament that brings together over 175 individual debate teams from across the nation to compete for a national championship.

CEDA acts as a tournament sanctioning agent, providing through its Constitution and By-Laws a framework for normalizing tournament practices and procedures.

In 1933, the right-wing Spanish Confederation of the Autonomous Right ( CEDA ) won power, An armed rising of workers in October 1934, which reached its greatest intensity in Asturias and Catalonia, was forcefully put down by the CEDA government.

The program has several historical and recent successes, reaching the final four in the NDT twice ( 1973, 2008 ) and the final four in CEDA five times ( 1988, 1990, 1991, 1992, 2008 ), including its 1992 CEDA National Championship.

These elections were won by the right-wing Confederación Española de Derechas Autónomas ( CEDA ) and the centrist Radical Republican Party.

It elected 278 deputies-99 of which belonged to the Socialists ( PSOE )-while the right-wing elected 124 deputies-88 of which belonged to the CEDA.

The Spanish Confederation of the Autonomous Right (, CEDA ) was a Spanish political party in the Second Spanish Republic.

The CEDA saw itself as a defensive organisation, formed to protect religion, family, and property.

" The CEDA held fascist-style rallies, called Gil-Robles " Jefe ", the equivalent of Duce, and claimed that the CEDA might lead a " March on Madrid " ( similar to the Italian Fascist March on Rome ) to forcefully seize power.

The CEDA claimed that it was defending Spain and " Christian civilization " from Marxism, and claimed that the political atmosphere in Spain had made politics a matter of Marxism versus anti-Marxism.

With the advent of the rise of the Nazi Party to power in Germany, the CEDA aligned itself with similar propaganda ploys to the Nazis, including the Nazi emphasis on authority, the fatherland, and hierarchy.
