Uruguayan Anarchist Federation

Federación Anarquista Uruguaya, commonly known as FAU or Uruguayan Anarchist Federation, is a Uruguayan anarchist organization founded in 1956. The FAU was created by anarchist militants to be a specifically anarchist organization. The FAU was the first organization to promote the organizational concept of Especifismo.^[1] The FAU has aided in the creation of several similar anarchist organizations including the Federação Anarquista Gaúcha (FAG)^[2] and Federação Anarquista Cabocla (FACA) in Uruguay, the Argentine organization Auca (Rebel), and the Federação Anarquista do Rio de Janeiro (FARJ) in Brazil. Since 2010 it has participated in Anarkismo.net.
