Marc Stears (born 1971) is a British political theorist. He is Director of the UCL Policy Lab, based at University College London, having previously led the Sydney Policy Lab at The University of Sydney.[1] Before arriving in Sydney in 2018, Marc had been Chief Executive of the New Economics Foundation. He was previously Professor of Political Theory and Fellow of University College, Oxford.[2] His published works have focussed mainly on the development of progressive political movements in the UK[3] and the USA.[4] He was a leading thinker in the Blue Labour movement.[5] He was formerly chief speechwriter to Ed Miliband during the Labour leader's unsuccessful 2015 General Election campaign.[6]
Stears is one of the editors of "The Labour tradition and the politics of paradox"[9] along with Maurice Glasman, Jonathan Rutherford and Stuart White. This book came out of a series of seminars in Oxford and London, which seek to find a new direction for the Labour Party after its 2010 electoral defeat.
