Bernard Bernier (born 1942) is a Canadian anthropologist and Professor at the Université de Montréal, where he has been working since January 1970. His main topics of research are Japanese political economy, theories of social change, nationalism and social inequalities, and Watsuji Tetsurô's philosophy.
