Prince Konoe Atsumaro (近衛 篤麿, August 10, 1863 – January 1, 1904) was a Japanese politician and journalist of the Meiji era.

In terms of foreign policy, Konoe was a central figure in the Pan-Asian Movement.

He established a Pan-Asian political movement called the East Asia Common Culture Society (東亜同文会, Toa Dobunkai) which promoted mutual understanding and improvement in relations between Japan and China after the First Sino-Japanese War.

The society also published a scholarly journal and an 11,000-page report, entitled A Comprehensive Book on the Economics Conditions in China.

In August 1903, Konoe established the Anti-Russia Society (対露同志会, Tairo Dōshikai) which pushed for a hard-line foreign policy towards the Russian Empire, which it perceived as a threat to the independence of China, Korea, and Japan.
