Rick Kuhn (born 18 September 1955) is an Australian Marxist economist, political analyst and reader at the Australian National University in Canberra.[1][2] He is best known for his biographical study on Henryk Grossman, for which he won the Deutscher Memorial Prize in 2007.[3] Chris Harman of the British Socialist Workers Party and editor of International Socialism said of the biography: "Grossman is an important part of our heritage... Kuhn's volume is a valuable addition to our theoretical armour."[4] Kuhn is of Jewish origin and is a member of Jews Against Oppression and Occupation.[5] He was the convenor of ACTNOW, the umbrella anti-war organisation in Canberra, formed in response to the wars on Afghanistan[6] and Iraq.[7] He is also a long-term member of the Trotskyist organisation Socialist Alternative[8] and an editor of the online journal Marxist Interventions.[9] Kuhn has published articles in Socialist Alternative,[5] International Socialist Review,[10] Socialist Worker,[11] Monthly Review,[12] CounterPunch,[13] ZNet[14], The Canberra Times[15] and various academic journals and edited collections.[16]
