In addition to being a prominent sociologist, "Emad Afrough" had a particular interest in the thoughts of Imam Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic Revolution. Afrough made extensive scientific and political efforts to match the ideals of the "Islamic Revolution" and the realities of the "Islamic Republic." Ayatollah Khamenei, supreme leader of Iran, praised the "intellectual efforts" of this "revolutionary scientist." Afarugh's considerable scientific works for the sociological analysis of the Islamic Revolution and the cultural issues of the Islamic Republic of Iran have caused him to be known as the "Sociologist of the Islamic Revolution."

Research works can be as a research project, a master's thesis, a doctoral dissertation, a book (derived from a research project), a scientific research paper (highly cited), or a policy report. Pathological and applied works that propose solutions to cultural problems are given priority.
