The Fourth Turning Has Arrived: History Offers A Guide to Crisis Management - Neil Howe
by Adam Taggart * Peak Prosperity In 1996, demographers William Strauss and Neil Howe published the book The Fourth Turning. This study of generational cycles ("turnings") in America revealed predictable social trends that recur throughout history and warned of a coming crisis (a "fourth turning") based on this research. Fourth turnings are defined by disorder and great changes brought on by a breakdown of the systems and operating principles that dominated the prior three turnings. Our society has entered a fourth turning (consisting of the twenty-year periods leading up to and out of it immediately.) It is a season you have to move through before you are born again -- so to speak -- as a society, and regain institutional confidence.
