Social capital is defined by Robert D. Putnam as " the collective value of all social networks and species ( who people know ) and the inclinations that arise from these works to do things for each other ( norms of reciprocity ).

Although Shelton's version is cherished by some, according to John Ormsby and Samuel Putnam, it was far from satisfactory as a carrying over of Cervantes's text.

Near the end of the 17th century, John Phillips, a nephew of poet John Milton, published what is considered by Putnam the worst English translated version.

What future translator Samuel Putnam called " the prevailing slapstick quality of this work, especially where Sancho Panza is involved, the obtrusion of the obscene where it is found in the original, and the slurring of difficulties through omissions or expanding upon the text " all made the Motteux version irresponsible.

According to Hilary Putnam, a former student of Hans Reichenbach and Rudolf Carnap, making an observational / theoretical distinction is meaningless.

According to Putnam and his followers, social capital is a key component to building and maintaining democracy.

According to Robert D. Putnam, the " institutional performance " of Veneto's regional government is higher than average in Italy, thus Veneto belongs to the " civic North ".

Contemporary mathematical empiricism, formulated by Quine and Putnam, is primarily supported by the indispensability argument: mathematics is indispensable to all empirical sciences, and if we want to believe in the reality of the phenomena described by the sciences, we ought also believe in the reality of those entities required for this description.
