The Turning Points of Time: How Cycles Have and Will Shape America’s Evolution

@COASTTOCOASTAMOFFICIAL Twenty-five years ago, Neil Howe suggested a provocative new theory of American history. Looking back at the last 500 years, he uncovered a distinct pattern: modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting roughly eighty to one hundred years, the length of a long human life, with each cycle composed of four eras, or “turnings,“ that always arrive in the same order and each last about twenty years. Howe joined Ian Punnett to discuss the last of these eras, the fourth turning, which he describes as a period of civic upheaval and national mobilization as traumatic and transformative as the New Deal and World War II, the Civil War, or the American Revolution.
