Anarchist Federation (Federazione Anarchica Italiana)

The Anarchist Federation (Federazione Anarchica Italiana - FAI) is an Italian organization that promotes anarchist principles, emphasizing individual freedom, voluntary cooperation, and opposition to hierarchical authority and state power. Founded in 1945, it advocates for a society based on self-managed communities, workers’ control, and social equality, often through direct action and grassroots activism. The FAI seeks to challenge existing political and economic structures they view as oppressive, aiming for a stateless society rooted in voluntary association and mutual aid. It functions as a network of autonomous groups committed to these ideals, engaging in education, activism, and social struggles.
