His scientific works are in the areas of theory and history of sociology and the disciplinary fields of modern sociology.  The focus of the research interests of G.Fotev is the nature of sociology as a multiple paradigm science.  Another major theme in the works of Georgy Fotev is the dialogue as a base and horizon of multiple paradigm sociology.  Georgy Fotev has publications in the fields of historical sociology, sociology of politics, ethnosociology, the crisis of legitimacy, sociology of values, etc.  His books "The long night of communism in Bulgaria" and "Bulgarian melancholy" throw light on the dramatic fate of the Bulgarian national society.  Georgy Fotev was Minister of Education and Science (1991 - 1992).  He is professor emeritus of New Bulgarian University.  In 2003 he was awarded the Distinguished Service Award from the American University in Bulgaria.

He is specifically known for his work at the intersection of cognitive science and sociology of culture, but also social networks, organizational sociology and sociological theory.

Victor B. Lieberman (born 22 July 1945) is an historian of early modern Southeast Asia and Eurasia.  He presently serves as the Raoul Wallenberg Distinguished University Professor of History and Professor of Asian and Comparative History at the University of Michigan, where he began teaching in 1984.  That year he published a seminal work, "Burmese Administrative Cycles: Anarchy and Conquest, c.1580-1760" (Princeton University Press), which profoundly impacted scholarship on mainland Southeast Asia through an analysis of alternating governance patterns in 16th- to 18th-century Burma.  Totaling some 1500 pages, his more recent two-volume study "Strange Parallels: Southeast Asia in Global Context, c. 800-1830" (Cambridge University Press) argued that in terms of basic dynamics, chronology, and trajectory, patterns of political and cultural integration in mainland Southeast Asia over several centuries resembled those in much of Europe and Japan, and to a lesser extent, in China and South Asia.  A lead featured review in "The American Historical Review" in 2012 (vol.  117, no. 4) claimed that "Lieberman's two-volume magnum opus is the most important work of history produced so far this century."  Two international conferences, in London and Osaka, have been held to discuss Lieberman's scholarship, and each of the two chief journals of Asian studies, "Modern Asian Studies" (1997) and "The Journal of Asian Studies" (2011), has devoted a special edition to his work.  In 2014 he won the Golden Apple Award, conferred by student ballot, as the best teacher at the University of Michigan.

Akosua Adoma Owusu (born January 1, 1984) is a Ghanaian-American avant-garde filmmaker and producer whose films have screened worldwide in prestigious film festivals, museums, galleries, universities and microcinemas since 2005.  “Owusu uses various production techniques to visualize a state of "triple consciousness", a term she coined in reference to a central tenet of the sociologist and civil rights activist W. E. B. Du Bois’s landmark text "The Souls of Black Folk" (1903).  Du Bois' double consciousness accounts for the experience of black Americans negotiating a sense of selfhood in the face of discrimination and cultural dislocation.  As part of the first generation in her family to be born in the United States, Owusu extends Du Bois’s concept to speak to the crisis of heritage and assimilation for African expatriates and their US-born children."  Owusu has stated that “instead of ‘Africanizing’ Western stories, I’m interested in reclaiming African history rendering them into what is happening in the present day.” John Marshall Grady (born 1950s) is an American sociologist, and Professor of Sociology at Wheaton College, known for his seminal work in the field of visual sociology.
