Sir James George Frazer OM FRS [1] FRSE FBA (1. januar 1854 – 7. maj 1941), bio je škotski socijalni antropolog poznat po izuzetnom uticaju na ranu fazu studija mitologije i komparativne religije.[2] Često ga se naziva jednim od očeva i osnivača moderne antropologije.

Njegovo najpoznatije djelo The Golden Bough (1890) je detaljno opisalo sličnosti magijskih i religijskih vjerovanja širom svijeta. Frazer je tvrdio da su ljudska vjerovanja evoluirala kroz tri stadija: primitivnu magiju, religiju i modernu nauku.
