**John Kenneth** "**Ken**" **Galbraith**, OC (/ɡælˈbreɪθ/, 15. oktobar 1908 – 29. april 2006) bio je kanadsko-američki ekonomist i diplomat, poznat kao jedan od vodećih liberalnih intelektualaca u SAD u drugoj polovici 20. vijeka, odnosno kao autor široj javnosti pristupačnih ekonomskih knjiga koje su postale bestsleri. Galbraith je pripadao postkeynesijanskim ekonomistima, te je ekonomiju sagledavao sa institucionalne perspektive.
