Debate is an activity in which two parties discuss opposing sides of an issue, event, or situation to argue a viewpoint. Often occurring in formal settings, debates frequently involve an audience and a moderator, though these features are not absolutely crucial to the process. Logic, credibility, and emotional appeal form the foundation for a well-formed, productive debate.
