Bowling Alone
Buy Bowling Alone by Robert D. Putnam on Amazon
I remember reading the book Bowling Alone, which talked a lot about a generation of adults who used to be part of bowling leagues and other things, but we saw a decline in people—in this case, it was men—but in general people needing to find more connective tissue in their community and not having that sense of belonging.
The podcast guest, Alexis Ohanian, references his reading of 'Bowling Alone' to discuss the decline in community engagement and the shifting dynamics of belonging in society. He highlights how the internet presents both challenges and opportunities for building human connections and fostering community.
