Kan Abe (安倍 寛 Abe Kan, April 29, 1894 – January 30, 1946) was a Japanese politician. Born into a family of brewers of soy sauce and sake who were landlords in the area of Ōtsu District (now part of the city of Nagato) in Yamaguchi Prefecture, he graduated from Tokyo Imperial University, the predecessor of the University of Tokyo. He was elected to the House of Representatives, and enjoyed great popularity, earning the nickname "New Shōin" or "Shōwa Shōin" in honor of the earlier leader from Yamaguchi, Yoshida Shōin. At the time of his death, he was preparing to run in the first postwar general election.
Abe's son Shintarō became a successful politician, also representing Yamaguchi, and held posts in the Cabinet. Shintarō's son Shinzō was the Prime Minister of Japan.
