Isaak Izrailevich Mints (Russian: Исаа́к Изра́илевич Минц, Ukrainian: Ісак Ізраїльович Мінц; 3 February 1896 – 5 April 1991) was the leading Soviet historian in the early and mid-twentieth century. In 1949 he lost most of his academic positions as part of the campaign against the "rootless cosmopolitans", a Soviet euphemism for Jews. Nevertheless, he had eventually become an "ideal Soviet Jew" due to his adherence to the Soviet "party line".^[1]

Isaak Mints was born in Krinichki, Russian Empire, now Krynychky, Ukraine.^[1]

Mints was the leading Soviet historian in the early and mid-twentieth century. In 1949 he lost most of his academic positions following a campaign against him by his colleague Arkady Sidorov that was part of the drive by Joseph Stalin to eliminate the "rootless cosmopolitans", most of whom were Jewish.^[2][1] Despite this, in 1953 he arranged for Soviet Jews to write a letter to Pravda condemning Zionism, Israel, and the "doctors' plot".^[1]
