Zygmunt Balicki (30 December 1858 in Lublin – 12 September 1916 in Saint Petersburg) was a Polish sociologist, publicist and one of the first leading thinkers of the modern Polish nationalism in the late 19th century under the foreign Partitions of Poland.
Balicki developed his original political thought inspired by the ideals of Aleksander Swietochowski from the movement of Positivism which was marked by the attempts at trying to stop the wholesale Russification and Germanization of the Poles ever since the Polish language was banned in reprisal for the January Uprising.
Along with Roman Dmowski, Balicki was a key protagonist in the National Democratic campaign of antisemitic agitation.
