My name is Thomas Fazi. I’m a journalist, writer, documentary filmmaker, activist and Anglo-Italian translator (of authors such as Christopher Hitchens, George Soros and Robert Reich). I mostly spend my time in Rome, Italy. Amongst other things, I’m the co-director of Standing Army (2010), an award-winning feature-length documentary on US military bases featuring Gore Vidal and Noam Chomsky; and the author of The Battle for Europe: How an Elite Hijacked a Continent – and How We Can Take It Back (Pluto Press, 2014). I’m a regular contributor to Social Europe Journal, il manifesto, openDemocracy, Krytyka Polityczna, Green European Journal and other printed and online journals. I collaborate with the Italian civil society network Sbilanciamoci!.
