Addressing the Academy -- site developed by Ioan Davies' during the 1997 YUFA Strike:
"This Web-Page invites comments. It tries not only to deal with the York University strike itself, or the aftermath as it affects York standing alone, but with the York events as being the occasion for thinking about contested academia, intellectual identity, pedagogy, and cultural definition anywhere in the world where these issues are seen as being important. Because, as benjamin said. "the 'state of emergency' in which we live is not the exception but the rule", we have to recognize the ongoing state of emergency. "
