Answer and explanation:

In the famous epic poem "The Odyssey", Odysseus has spent the past couple of decades trying to return home after the war in Troy. When he finally comes home and kills the men who want to marry his wife, Penelope, he is unrecognizable - not only because of the time that has passed, but also because the goddess Athena changed his appearance. To test him and be sure if he truly is who he says he is, Penelope asks a servant to move their marriage bed. Odysseus gets angry at her order, since he built their bedroom around an olive tree and used the tree as a bedpost. His knowledge of that story and his anger show Penelope that man is truly the husband she's been faithfully waiting for.

The correct answer is "informal social ties."

With that statement, Sociologist Robert Putnam was referring to informal social ties and how these promote bureaucracy.

Robert Putnam is a Professor of Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He analyses the society of the US, observing how it has deteriorated civic and personal values. He wrote the book "Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community," in which he suggests that new forms of social engagement must be developed to change the situation.
