Hi all,
if anyone was at the critical geography conference in Frankfurt last
summer, you might remember IVI, where one of the bars/parties was held.
It is a squat threatened by eviction, and here's an opportunity to sign
a petition for it.

Support the Department of Comparative Irrelevance in Frankfurt, Germany____
(German: Institut für vergleichende Irrelevanz, ivi). Since 2003 the
former university building is squatted. Because the university is moving
to a new campus area the building has been sold to real estate investor
franconofort, who is known for high priced development and privatization
of housing space.____

The ivi is an independent cultural center. It provides space for
scholars, bands, artists and activists to live theory and praxis, party
and realize their alternative social ideas. Beside the everyday struggle
the ivi hosted a lot of international critical researchers in the last
years. Beyond many others Judith Halberstam, David Harvey, John
Holloway, Melissa Wright, Don Mitchell and Peter Marcuse gave a lecture
in the lecture room of the ivi.____

I ask you to sign this ePetition to support the ivi as a place which
must be____
preserved:____
