BOWLING ALONE
The Collapse and Revival of American Community
Book • 2001
In 'Bowling Alone', Robert D. Putnam presents extensive data showing how Americans have become disconnected from family, friends, neighbors, and democratic structures.
He argues that this decline in social capital has significant negative impacts on physical and civic health.
The book explores various factors contributing to this decline, including changes in work, family structure, suburbanization, and the influence of technology such as television and the internet.
Putnam also discusses historical precedents and potential solutions for reviving civic engagement and social connections.
