The 2023 Ithiel de Sola Pool Lecture by Robert D. Putnam

On September 22 at Schloss Leopoldskron, we were proud to host the 2023 Ithiel de Sola Pool lecture on the impact of communications technology on society and politics. Our lecturer, Robert D. Putnam, is the Malkin Research Professor of Public Policy at Harvard University. A member of the National Academy of Sciences, a fellow of the British Academy, and past president of the American Political Science Association, in 2006 he received the Skytte Prize, the world's highest accolade for a political scientist. In 2012 Barack Obama awarded Bob the National Humanities Medal, the nation's highest honor for contributions to the humanities. He has written fifteen books, translated into twenty languages, including Making Democracy Work: Civic Traditions in Italy and Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community, both among the most cited (and bestselling) social science works in nearly a century. He has consulted for Presidents Carter, Clinton, Bush 43, and Obama, as well as presidents and prime ministers from the UK, Ireland, and Finland to South Korea and Singapore. His most recent book, The Upswing: How America Came Together a Century Ago and How We Can Do It Again (2020), is a widely praised study of broad 20th century American economic, social, political, and cultural trends.
