Hitoshi Yamakawa (Japanese: 山川 均, Hepburn: Yamakawa Hitoshi, December 20, 1880 – March 23, 1958) was a Japanese revolutionary socialist who played a leading role in founding the Japanese Communist Party in 1922. He was also a founding member of the Rono-ha (Labour-Farmer Faction), a group of Marxist thinkers opposed to the Comintern.
His most famous work was the essay "A change of course for the proletarian movement" (無産階級運動の方向転換, Musan kaikyū undō no hōkō tenkan) where he advocated direct political action and better coordination within the labour movement, while criticising the anarchist movement for failing to achieve any lasting results. He is remembered in Japan today for being instrumental in introducing Marxism and socialism to Japanese thinkers.
