Phillip Blond (born 1 March 1966) is an English political philosopher, Anglican theologian, and director of the ResPublica think tank.

At Peterhouse, he was a student of John Milbank, founder of the radical orthodoxy theological movement[3] and a noted critic of liberalism, philosophically understood.

Blond gained prominence from a cover story in Prospect magazine in the February 2009 edition with his essay on red Toryism,[8] which proposed a radical communitarian traditionalist conservatism that inveighed against both state and market monopoly.

As he explains it, modern and postmodern individualism and statism have always been connected of the hip, at least since the advent of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's thought, if not well before that in the work of Thomas Hobbes.

[9] In a series of articles in both The Guardian[10] and The Independent he has argued for a wider recognition of the merits of civic conservatism and an appreciation of the potentially transformative impact of a new Tory settlement.
