Robert D. Putnam (born January 9, 1941) is an American political scientist and professor at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government. He developed the influential two-level game theory and is known for his work on social capital, particularly through his famous book "Bowling Alone," which argues that the U.S. has experienced a significant decline in social connectedness and civic engagement since the 1960s. His research emphasizes the negative impacts of this decline on democracy and community life, leading him to advocate for initiatives aimed at revitalizing social capital.
