Ruslan Nigellus Chamberlain (born 21 April 1967) is a Wealdenite author, campaigner, philosopher, economist, political theorist, historian, journalist, and politician, who has been the founder and general secretary for the Democratic Labour Party since 2020. A socialist revolutionary, Chamberlain is well-known for his instrumental activism and powerful use of literature in his published books. His most notable works are The Chamberlain Manifesto (2004) and Social Democracy: Capitalism in Disguise (2021).

Chamberlain is regarded as a well-respected and admired political theorist in Wealden, having been hired to work on structuring the government and politics of Wealden after the 2023 Cappedore coup. He also assisted in shaping the economic policies of Michael Ramsay before his assassination in 2007, and is also notable for speaking out against the CSDP-led state after defecting from the party in 2020 to form a new party, Democratic Labour.

In 2020, he founded the Democratic Labour Party alongside like-minded socialist revolutionaries Casimir Parks (formerly leader of Momentum) and Vivienne Medvedev. Disillusioned with the growing power of the social democratic party, Chamberlain actively spoke out against Maya Murray and Austin Merrill, calling them power-hungry conservatives in disguise. This movement to form a new party would inspire his book, Social Democracy: Capitalism in Disguise. Chamberlain has described himself as being a democratic socialist, and identifies as 'strongly left-wing'.
