Irving Kristol foi um escritor, jornalista e intelectual estadunidense, considerado o fundador do neoconservadorismo. Foi casado com a escritora Gertrude Himmelfarb.

Ex-trotskista, Kristol distanciou-se das ideias do liberal Friedrich Hayek, segundo o qual o crescimento do Estado seria o "caminho de servidão". Para Kristol, não existe sociedade política tolerável sem um Estado bem mais intervencionista do que o "guarda-noturno" de que falava Herbert Spencer. Por este, entre outros motivos, o Estado, segundo Kristrol, não deve ser neutro perante diferentes concepções do bem, mas proteger valores morais relevantes para a sociedade.Foi agraciado, em julho de 2002, pelo presidente norte-americano George W. Bush com a Presidential Medal of Freedom . Wikipedia
