Answer:
Robert Nisbet
Explanation:
Robert Nisbet was an American sociologist and professor who wrote The Quest for Community. Nisbet argued that humans had an intrinsic desire for companionship and community, and that modern society often pushed people towards individualism, which made them unhappy. He also believed in the importance of traditions in order to maintain a sense of social unity and in the idea of an "intermediate society" with intermediate institutions. He also believed this to be the only defense of the common people against the centralizing power of the nation-state.
