Generational Dynamics Forum - New Site

The Nuer call something similar the "money of shit."

Perhaps an expletive is warranted at this stage!

If you want to do compare historical analyses, then comparative history is valid ONLY during comparable generational eras. Today we're still in what one person calls the "post-unraveling era," where the crisis era has technically begun, but the regeneracy hasn't occurred. Eras before and after the ...

How do people think the war will be fought? Massive thermonuclear/small nuclear then conventional/conventional with frequent use of nukes...? It's pretty much a given that nukes are going to be used somewhere (the most likely candidate is India/Pakistan), but the majority of fighting is going to be...

This is what I am attempting to do via my new website, futronomics.blogspot.com - socioeconomics are one of the sciences I focus on and I use a generational theory perspective when doing so. Ever since reading "The Fourth Turning" a few years ago, my eyes have been opened up not to just the last fe...

As an aside, I think it's impossible to separate politics from theory. Or rather, one shouldn't separate the two after acquiring knowledge of generational theory.

While there's some emotional satisfaction in saving pennies for their copper content, I don't think that realistically it will ever really be worth your time. As our currency's value falls to zero, copper pennies will nominally be worth a lot more than a penny but their buying power will probably n...

In light of recent events, it appears that a financial crisis is going to catalyze the regeneracy phase of the 4T for most countries. With this in mind, I find it hard to believe that a war with China is anywhere near certain. The country is a basket case: its leaders are paranoid, the populace is r...

I found this site in late 2004 after cruising around the fourthturning.com forums. My username was michaeleaston. Although I don't post there anymore (don't have much to add at this point and it can get a bit hectic over there), I still lurk at TFT daily. Together with a few others (especially '1990...
