Fyodor Ivanovich Kozhevnikov (Russian: Фёдор Иванович Кожевников; 15 March 1903 – 22 March 1998) was a Soviet jurist and legal expert.

He wrote extensively about international law aspects in Russian history, and his writing supported Russian nationalist interpretation rather than Marxist–Leninist ideas. His main argument was that the Russian state, both in Tsarist times as well as under the Soviets, was the most progressive civilization in the field of international law.

Legal career

During World War II, Kozhevninkov served as the Dean of the Faculty of Law at Moscow State University. From 1952 to 1953 represented his country at the International Law Commission. In November 1953, was appointed as judge at the International Court of Justice, a position he held until 1961. He also served as a judge at the Permanent Court of Arbitration.
