Karl August Wittfogel (Chinese: 魏復古; pinyin: Wèi Fùgǔ; 6 September 1896 – 25 May 1988) was a German-American playwright, historian, and sinologist. He was originally a Marxist and an active member of the Communist Party of Germany, but after the Second World War Wittfogel was an equally-fierce anticommunist.
