A Guerrilla Guide to Refusal presents a unique philosophical perspective through a guerrilla-logic lens, creatively reimagining counterinsurgency and interventions outside the political mainstream. It explores anarchist infowar, queer outlaws, and black insurgency, navigating a network of communiques, military documents, contemporary art, political slogans, adversarial blogs, and media. The work offers fresh insights into contemporary political movements that reject demands, labels, and solutions. Author Andrew Culp inspires and provokes thought on the refusal to engage in traditional politics, illustrating how evasion can undermine the existing order's power. By examining punk cinema, anarchist pamphlets, feminist art, hacker manifestos, and guerrilla manuals, he highlights invisibility as a disruptive force. Culp employs concepts of criminality, fugitivity, and anonymity to deepen our understanding of how power shapes visibility. The book's structure resembles a theoretical manual, featuring standalone segments rather than a linear blueprint. Aimed at both academic and activist audiences, this intervention challenges us to rethink the landscape of our struggles against patriarchy, anti-Blackness, capitalism, and the state.
