Uri Gordon (Hebrew: אורי גורדון‎‎; born August 30, 1976) is an Israeli anarchist theorist and activist. He is a lecturer at the University of Nottingham , and formerly at Loughborough University in the UK and the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies in Ketura, Israel. One of several anarchist theorists to come of age during the anti-globalization movement at the turn of the 21st century, he has worked with anarchist and radical movements including Indymedia, Peoples' Global Action, and Anarchists Against the Wall. Active primarily in Britain and his native Israel, Gordon has participated in protests at international summits across Europe, and played a part in the 2011 Israeli social justice protests.

Gordon's book Anarchy Alive!, based on his PhD research at Oxford University, was well received by reviewers. He has written several articles and book chapters about contemporary anarchism, wrote a guest editorial following the Second Lebanon War in Anarchist Studies volume 14, issue 2, and contributed an article on anarchism in Israel to the subsequent issue. He has written reviews for The New Formulation, and Perspectives on Anarchist Theory, and in 2013 edited a volume of writings by activists in Anarchists Against the Wall.
