Gerhart Hirsch (Viena, 9 de febrero de 1923-Vosnon, Champagne-Ardenne (Francia), 22 de septiembre de 2007), más conocido por su pseudónimo André Gorz, fue un filósofo y periodista francés. De personalidad extremadamente discreta, es autor de un pensamiento que oscila entre filosofía, teoría política y crítica social. Discípulo del existencialismo de Jean-Paul Sartre, tras 1968 se convirtió en unos de los principales teóricos de la ecología política y el altermundialismo. Asimismo, fue cofundador (junto a Jean Daniel) en 1964 de la revista Le Nouvel Observateur, con el seudónimo de Michel Bosquet.
