Italian term or phrase: e schierato n maniera netta
From a biographical excerpt of the life of an immigrant from Italy to Canada.

I am assuming it relates to his involvement in, or use of, politics....? Though, if this is correct, I am still unsure of the best usage for the context.

"E sempre stato interassato di politica e schierato n maniera netta. Ha sempre tifato Roma. Ha sempre avuto un talento artistico." ... etc
