Simon Stevens

Dr. Simon Stevens is a Lecturer in Political Philosophy and Political Thought at De Montfort University's School of Humanities and Performing Arts. His work focuses on civil disobedience, homelessness, and normative ethical frameworks within political theory. He engages with interdisciplinary topics such as the sociopolitical implications of marginalization, public space policies, and the ethical dimensions of activism.

Research interests include anarchism, the role of storytelling in political theory, and the intersection of public health crises (e.g., coronavirus) with homelessness. His publications explore themes like normative behaviorism, bureaucratic systems, and anti-homeless urban policies.

His articles often critique existing frameworks for addressing social exclusion, proposing alternative narratives and methodologies. Notable contributions include analyzing the 'Bureaucratisation of Civil Disobedience' and exploring 'An Anti-homeless Public Space' through a sociopolitical lens.

No honours or awards are listed, though his research has implications for policy reform and ethical governance. His academic contributions emphasize theoretical rigor combined with real-world societal challenges.
