Werner Bergmann (born 26 May 1950, Celle, West Germany) is a German sociologist. He is Professor of Sociology at the Center for Research on Antisemitism at the Technical University of Berlin.

Bergmann's work focuses on sociology and history of anti-Semitism and related areas, including racism and right-wing extremism. His has published on the theory of social movements, forms of collective violence (pogroms, genocides) and on prejudice.[citation needed]

In their 1997 book, Anti-Semitism and Xenophobia in Germany after Unification, Berkman and Erd put forward the idea of secondary antisemitism, a privately held antisemitic world view common among post-War citizens of West Germany that remained latent but increased in strength because it was denied a public expression.[1]
