The Aliarcham Academy of Social Sciences  (Akademi Ilmu Sosial "Aliarcham") was a university run by the Communist Party of Indonesia (PKI) in the 1950s and 1960s. It was named after Aliarcham, an Indonesian Communist of an earlier generation who had died in the Dutch concentration camp at Boven-Digoel.

History
The Aliarcham Academy, along with all other PKI academic institutions, was shut down by decree of the Minister of Education Brigadier General Sjarif Thajeb in 1965.

Legacy
Since 2020, an Indonesian YouTube channel teaching Marxist theory has been using the name Akademi Aliarcham.
