Ali Kemal Bey (7 September 1869 – 6 November 1922) was a Turkish journalist, politician and writer who served as the Minister of the Interior of the Ottoman Empire in 1919 under the government of Grand Vizier Damat Ferid Pasha. Ideologically an Ottoman liberal, he was lynched by Nureddin Pasha's paramilitary officers for his opposition to the Turkish National Movement following Turkish victory in the Greco-Turkish War.

Kemal is the father of Zeki Kuneralp, who was the former Turkish ambassador in Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and Spain. In addition, he is the paternal grandfather of both the Turkish diplomat Selim Kuneralp, and the British politician Stanley Johnson. Through Johnson, Ali Kemal is the great-grandfather of former British prime minister Boris Johnson.
