Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America s past will predict its future. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStrauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back five hundred years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four eras or 'turnings' that last about twenty years and that always arrive in the same order. In T\u003ci\u003ehe Fourth Turning\u003c\/i\u003e, the authors illustrate these cycles using a brilliant analysis of the post-World War II period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst comes a High, a period of confident expansion as a new order takes root after the old has been swept away. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion against the now-established order. Then comes an Unraveling, an increasingly troubled era in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis the Fourth Turning when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. Together, the four turnings comprise history's seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Fourth Turning \u003c\/i\u003eoffers bold predictions about how all of us can prepare, individually and collectively, for America s next rendezvous with destiny.","brand":"Buchserien.de","offers":[{"title":"Neuware","offer_id":52803947659602,"sku":"9780767900461","price":21.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/7002\/3593\/files\/unnamed_559f38cd-58da-457f-b931-91a3bdb33946.jpg?v=1772072438","url":"https:\/\/www.buchserien.de\/products\/the-fourth-turning-1","provider":"Buchserien.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
