Great Regulars: Laws regarding public space are inherently

exclusionary, even if, on the surface, they appear designed toward inclusion." These poets use "locational conflict" or "interventionary practices" to reclaim public spaces as sites of social production.

Their book looks at four instances of contemporary Guerrilla Poetry.
