Nikolay Ivanovich Zhukovsky (Russian: Николай Иванович Жуковский; (2 November [O.S. 21 October] 1833  – 11 May 1895) was a Russian revolutionary, journalist and publisher. Born into the Russian nobility, he fled the country due to his involvement in revolutionary activism. He became involved in the Free Russian Press and joined the exiled Russian anarchist movement, led by Mikhail Bakunin. Following Bakunin's expulsion from the International Workingmen's Association, he contributed to the publication of a series of anarchist newspapers.
