Robert Keohane was born in 1941 in Chicago and raised by social scientist parents. He graduated in 1961 and was influenced by President Kennedy's inaugural speech promoting democracy as an alternative to communism. Keohane is known for his work on neoliberal institutionalism and arguing that international institutions can increase cooperation by reducing uncertainty and transaction costs between states. Some of his influential books include After Hegemony (1984) and Ideas and Foreign Policy (1993).
