Alexander Herzen

Aleksandr Ivanovich Herzen (atau Aleksandr Ivanovič Gercen; ; ) adalah penulis dan pemikir Rusia yang dikenal sebagai "bapak sosialisme Rusia" dan salah satu pendiri populisme agraria (ideologi perintis Narodniki, Revolusioner Sosialis, Trudovik, dan Partai Populis Amerika Serikat). Melalui tulisan-tulisannya (beberapa di antaranya ditulis ketika mengasingkan diri di London), ia turut membangun suasana politik yang memicu emansipasi kaum petani tahun 1861. Ia menerbitkan novel sosial ternama berjudul Who is to Blame? (1845–46). Autobiografinya, My Past and Thoughts (ditulis 1852–1870), dianggap sebagai karya sosial terbaik dalam sastra Rusia.
