David Patrick Calleo (July 19, 1934 – June 15, 2023) was an American political scientist, based at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies, where he held the titles of Dean Acheson Professor of European Studies at SAIS and University Professor.
He founded (in 1968) and directed (until 2012) the preeminent American graduate program for the study of contemporary Europe. SAIS European Studies has formed hundreds of professionals working today in government, business, academia, and the press.

His books include Follies of Power: America's Unipolar Fantasy (2009); Rethinking Europe's Future (2001); The Bankrupting of America (1992); Beyond American Hegemony: The Future of the Western Alliance (1987); The Imperious Economy (1982); The German Problem Reconsidered (1978); America and the World Political Economy (1973); The Atlantic Fantasy (1970); Britain's Future (1968); The American Political System (1968); Coleridge and the Idea of a Modern Nation State (1966); and Europe's Future (1965).
