The FAU. Who we are. What we want.

The FAU is an anarcho-syndicalist trade union federation. It consists of independent local unions, known as syndicates. In our organization, decisions are made at the grassroots level.

As an organization of wage earners, we fight to improve our living conditions. Instead of the prevailing exploitation, destruction, and oppression of people and nature, the FAU advocates for an economic and social order based on solidarity and self-management, in which everyone can lead a good life.

As wage earners, we have the power to disrupt the smooth running of wage labor. We prefer to achieve our goals directly. In labor disputes, we therefore use means that exert direct pressure on the other side. We call this “direct action.”

Capitalism is not without alternative. It is not a law of nature, but a power relationship created by humans that can be abolished through collective action by workers.
