hands down Michael Mann (emeritus UCLA)
Who is the best living sociologist?
-
My adviser
I honestly think my old advisor is one of the best ever too. Not just because he’s my advisor. I sought him out because I thought this.
He’s not famous and people here don’t love the school so I’ll keep it quiet.I’m sure I can’t get you to name the person, but what school? I’m so curious.
-
I'd go with WJW.
Off the strength of what, exactly?Oh, I don't know, only The Truly Disadvantaged, When Work Disappears, the Declining Significance of Race, and setting the entire agenda for the study of race and urban sociology for the last 40 years. That's all.

I am the greatest living sociologist. Ask anybody. I know more about sociology than anyone. My sociology is great. Tremendous sociology, the best. All the other sociologists. . . they don’t know what they’re doing. My sociology? Great stuff. Of course, Fake News Journals ASR and AJS always "forget" to publish my work even though the ratings for my ideas videos are "through the roof." I think nobody knows more about sociology than I do, maybe in the history of the world.
Funny because while what you're doing is obvious, and funny, this also more or less fits half the sociologists on tweeter.
