Harold Dubinsky, més conegut com a Hal Draper, (Ciutat de Nova York, 19 de setembre de 1914 - Berkeley, 26 de gener de 1990) fou un activista polític socialista i escriptor estatunidenc, que va exercir un paper important en el Moviment de Llibertat d'Expressió de Berkeley, i ser un gran estudiós de la història i el significat del pensament de Karl Marx.^[1]

Draper va ser sempre un defensor del que anomenà "socialisme des de baix", l'autoemancipació de la classe treballadora en contra del capitalisme i la burocràcia estalinista, des dels quals defensava que es practicava la dominació des de dalt. Va ser un dels creadors de la tradició del tercer camp, una forma - la manera, d'acord amb els seus adherents - de socialisme marxista.
