Description

A Guerrilla Guide to Refusal by Andrew Culp is an unconventional approach to philosophy that reimagines counterinsurgency and interventions beyond the mainstream. This book harnesses critical theory to creatively reimagine resistance, drawing on concepts of criminality, fugitivity, and anonymity. Culp explores how evasion can be a powerful force of disruption, using examples from punk cinema, anarchist pamphlets, feminist art projects, hacker manifestos, and guerrilla manuals. The book's unique format is that of a theoretical manual, comprising freestanding segments instead of traditional blueprints. By reconsidering the terrain of struggles against patriarchy, anti-Blackness, capitalism, and the state, A Guerrilla Guide to Refusal offers a nuanced understanding of how power makes things - and people - visible.
