==Academic and fiction work==
Gavin Kitching is an expert on the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein, and has made contributions to the philosophy behind Marxism. In his latest work, Kitching has argued that postmodernism is a hollow form of philosophy, setting "an athletic Enlightenment cat among the plump postmodernist pigeons."〔Richard King, ('Pomo demolished by a blow from left field' ) (26.7.2008) ''The Australian''〕 He argues not only that postmodernism is either boring or wrong, but that it can be a distorting influence in education.〔See, Justine Ferrari, ('Postmodern path to student failure' ) (4.8.2008) ''The Australian''〕
Prior to that Kitching made contributions to development studies, with the early best-selling course text ''Development and Underdevelopment'' (1989). His first research and published work focussed on development in Africa, particularly Tanzania and Kenya, for which he won the Herskovitz Prize. Since the early 1990s he moved to analysing post-soviet Russia during the process of de-collectivisation of land. Subsequently he wrote about the effects of globalisation on social justice in the twenty-first-century economy, and is familiar to UNSW international studies students for teaching the introductory globalisation course.
Kitching is also a published novelist and playwright. The main characters play out their roles in the North-East of England, and the novels are whodunnit crime stories.
