Justin H. Gross
Associate Professor of Political Science and Computational Social Science, UMass Amherst
My research interests include U.S. ideologies, political communication in mass and social media, public opinion, and the intersection of identity and political beliefs. I also work on methodological problems in measurement, text analysis, and network analysis, and am especially interested in methods that put statistical and computational tools to use in service of our ability to achieve rich qualitative insights. I have published work in the American Journal of Political Science, British Journal of Political Science, Public Opinion Quarterly, and several other journals and edited volumes.
I am currently working on projects related to how media activists and politicians (opinion elites) invoke core values in order to frame arguments while at times contesting the very meanings and appropriate applications of these values. In related work, my coauthors and I are examining the processes by which extreme ideas may move from the fringe to the mainstream in contemporary U.S. political discussion. More generally, I am interested in the role of ideas in connecting political elites and the ideologically engaged public. I draw on scholarship by historians, social psychologists, and mass media & communication scholars, in addition to work by those who study political behavior and identities.

Justin J.W. Powell
Professor of Sociology of Education, University of Luxembourg
Justin J.W. Powell is Professor of Sociology of Education and Head of the Department of Social Sciences at the University of Luxembourg. His academic journey began in New York City at the Social Science Research Council, where he gained grant, project, and network administration experience. From there, he held (post-)doctoral fellowships at Berlin’s Max Planck Institute for Human Development, the American Institute for Contemporary German Studies in Washington, DC, the LSE, and the Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin für Sozialforschung (WZB).
With a focus on comparative institutional analysis, Powell’s work explores the dynamics of persistence and change in special and inclusive education, vocational training, higher education, and science systems. His scholarship—intersecting sociology, political science, and education—has been widely published in both English and German, earning recognition on both sides of the Atlantic. His numerous awards include the Irving K. Zola Award from the Society for Disability Studies in 2006 for Barriers to Inclusion: Special Education in the US and Germany (Routledge), analyzing the development of special and inclusive education systems cross-nationally. Powell’s dedication to advancing the comparative study of education system institutionalization is reflected in his co-authored volume Comparing Special Education: Origins to Contemporary Paradoxes (Stanford University Press, 2011), which received the Outstanding Book Award from the American Educational Research Association (Division B) in 2012. His collaborative work on The Century of Science: The Global Triumph of the Research University (Emerald, 2017) earned multiple accolades, including the Association for the Study of Higher Education’s Award for Significant Research on International Higher Education. More recently, he co-edited numerous books and co-authored European Educational Research (Re)Constructed: Institutional Change in Germany, the United Kingdom, Norway and the European Union (Symposium, 2018) and Global Mega-Science: Universities, Research Collaborations, and Knowledge Production (Stanford University Press, 2024).
An alumnus of Swarthmore College (BA, with distinction in sociology/anthropology), Powell pursued graduate studies in political science and sociology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Humboldt University of Berlin (MA, with distinction), culminating in his doctorate (Dr. phil., sociology, summa cum laude) from the Free University Berlin.
Before his appointment at the University of Luxembourg in 2012, Powell taught at several leading German universities, including Göttingen, Hanover, and the Free University Berlin. Since, he has held visiting international research and lecturer positions across Europe, including the University of Oxford (England), Bielefeld and Institute for Higher Education Research Halle-Wittenberg (Germany), Gothenburg (Sweden), and Zurich (Switzerland). His myriad research contributions and international collaborations contribute to advancing the fields of comparative education and sociology of education and science.
