Ivan Illich was an important person in the history of CIASP. He died this year after a long battle with cancer. There are online versions of his famous lecture to CIASP in Chicago(most mistakenly cite it as Cuernavaca). One version is available by clicking here. At the time, Illich was persuasive...but was he right. Any thoughts?

Several archives of Illich available. One good site is: http://www.preservenet.com/theory/Illich.html

David Cayley interviewed Illich for Tapestry (CBC) and these archives are available.

I have several audio tapes I made of my conversations with Illich and will attempt to make them available soon.
