Chai-Sik Chung (born July 14, 1930 in Wonju, Korea) is an American social ethicist and sociologist of religion. He studied under Walter George Muelder at the Boston University School of Theology, where he served as the Walter G. Muelder Professor of Social Ethics from 1990 to 2011. He also studied under the late Robert N. Bellah at Harvard Divinity School with whom he had been long associated. As a scholar of comparative religious ethics, he has been a pioneer in the study of social and ethical problems arising from East Asia's modern transformation. He has published widely in both Korean and English, on social and ethical issues involving globalization and encounters between civilizations, particularly those between Korea, East Asian religious traditions and Christianity. His publications include A Korean Confucian Encounter with the Modern World; Korea, Religious Tradition, and Globalization; Consciousness and History: Korean Cultural Tradition and Social Change; Korean Religion and Society Under Challenge: Continuity and Change; The Clash between Korean Confucianism and Modern Western Civilization; and his culminating work The Korean Tradition of Religion, Society, and Ethics: A Comparative Historical Interpretation and Looking Beyond.
