Loren Demerath, PhD

Besides being a researcher and theorist of social complexity, I'm also:​

• a musician who's sung about it! Here I am on the radio at the University of Michigan doing just that

• a community organizer who's used that experience to as the basis for developing a theory of social energy. Here's my TEDx talk on the topic back in 2012, and here's the facebook page for my non-profit organization, ABetterShreveport

• a Full Professor and the Chair of the Sociology Department at Centenary College of Louisiana

• a band leader. Here's my trio "A Fine Romance" on public radio

• a grateful spouse and proud father
