Kang Youwei (March 19, 1858 - March 31, 1927) was a China|Chinese scholar and political reformist.

He was a mentor of Liang Qichao, and the two of them participated in the Hundred Days' Reform. Both fled abroad when the program was unsuccessful.

Chinese government officials ordered him death penalty|executed by the method of Leng Tche or "death by a thousand cuts", and he fled to Hong Kong, which was then controlled by the British Empire. After China became a republic in 1912 he remained an advocate of constitutional monarchy, and for this aim he launched a failed coup d'etat in 1917.

Kang's daughter, Kang Tongbi (康同壁) was a student at Barnard College.
