The purpose of this site is to provide a range of basic information about the Anarcho-Syndicalist Federation, as well as general information about organisation and unionisation, the theory and practise of revolutionary unionism and anarcho-syndicalism, and news and information from the front lines of the class war.

Aims

The Anarcho-Syndicalist Federation is a libertarian workers movement organised according to anarcho-syndicalist principles. We aim to create a society based on liberty, mutual aid, federalism and self-management.

We believe the working class and the employing class have nothing in common. Between these two classes a struggle must go on until the workers of the world organise as a class, take possession of the earth and the machinery of production and abolish the wage system.

In the present we take an active part in the struggle for worker solidarity, shorter hours, immediate wage increases and improved working conditions. And we actively oppose all attacks on workers such as conscription of labour, strike breaking, drives for increased production and longer working hours, wage cuts or unemployment.

We want worker/community self-education for complete self-management of production, distribution and social organisation. This will come about by worker/community expropriation of wealth and the creation of alternative economic systems.

We would like to thank Antonio Burgos and Vicente Ruiz (hijo) who made available their archives, collection of photographs as well as their personal recollections.

To Miguel Íñiguez, the author of “La Enciclopedia Histórica del Anarquismo Español”, thank you for assisting and supplying details of Spanish anarchists that have resided in Australia.

Without their support and encouragement this project could not have been completed.
