Federazione Anarchica Italiana

The Federazione Italiana Anarchica (FAI ) is the Anarchist Federation of Italy.

History

The Federazione Anarchica Italiana was founded in 1945 in Carrara and took there the " Patto Associativo " ( German as associative Pact) and the " Anarchist Program " by Errico Malatesta to that already adopted on the anarchist congress of Bologna in 1920, because of fascism, for underground work forced, but could not be implemented. 1965, Gruppi di Iniziativa Anarchica split off, which consisted primarily of individualist anarchists, who disagreed with the writings Malatesta and faced the strong syndicalist flow critical.

Together with the Spanish and Bulgarian anarchist federations in exile founded the FAI in 1968, the International of Anarchist Federations.

In the early 1970s gained strength in the FAI Platformist a tendency in order to share the synthetic, that is pluralistic, flow cross- associative pact against a greater strategic coherence and commitment to the labor movement. 250 delegates from 60 different locations organized a congress in Liguria and rallied outside the FAI. In 1986, this named originally from the Organizzazione Rivoluzionaria Anarchica and the Unione dei Comunisti Anarchici della Toscana to existing and trading under ORA / UCAT cleavage in Federazione dei Comunisti Anarchici ( FDCA ).

The FAI distanced himself from the since 2003 with letter bombs -emergent group Federazione Anarchica Informal, which also shortens with FAI, and described their approach as "serious and shameful ".
