Fully agree with the premise of these cycles, 250 years or 10 generations that bring us to the current transitory Age of Decadence. Love your stack and would appreciate your review of Unrestricted Warfare —

Read this and agree with the basic premise of generational cycles affected by good times creating weakness and struggles creating strength. The West appears well under way into a collapse after a long period of comfort and affluence. The biggest unknowns are the timing of when and the solution.

Read the book a couple of years ago and has changed my view on current events completely. The book is quite academic and a tough read (for non native speaker), but an absolute must read if you want to understand today's world. You'll understand that we're deep into of the Fourth Turning, things will probably get worse some more, but that there is also reason to be positive for what comes after.

The Past is a Future Country offers a very good perspective along a similar theme.
