ResPublica (from the Latin phrase, res publica meaning 'public thing') is a British independent public policy think tank, founded in 2009 by Phillip Blond.
His philosophy studies led him to become a teacher, he began by publishing criticizing and theoretical papers in magazines such as "Le Philosophoire”, “La Revue d’Esthétique” (“The Journal of Aesthetics”) (ed. Jean-Michel Place) or “Respublica” (PUF), and then wrote regularly between 2002 and 2006 in “Liberation” a famous French magazine.
It is occasionally used for names of organisations and various other things; for instance: Hibernia National Bank, Hibernian Insurance Group, Ancient Order of Hibernians, The Hibernian magazine, Hibernia College, Hibernian Football Club, HMS Hibernia, the Hibernia oil field, and modern derivatives, from Latin like Respublica Hibernica (Irish Republic) and Universitas Hiberniae Nationalis (National University of Ireland).
