Re: Generation lengths
I definitely get the causative connection between the length of a human life and the length of a typical saeculum. What I was more focused on above was the "midlife" transition. It's easy to get into this mode of thinking of each era in the saeculum as being about 20 years long. This works fairly we...

Re: Generation lengths
I know I'm jumping in a bit late here, but with respect to the lengths of the eras in a saeculum, I find it helpful to compare them to the stages of a human life. A crisis war climax is a very fixed point in time that marks the beginning and end of a saeculum, just as birth and death are fixed point...

Re: CIA / NSA TRAITOR - Generational Affiliation/Characteris
As I was typing up the previous reply, I had a flash of insight that I think I will need to explore. I offer it here for your amusement. It makes sense to me that Generational Dynamics would be an evolution of similar psychological dynamics, right down to Crisis conflicts. If we go waaaay back to th...

Re: CIA / NSA TRAITOR - Generational Affiliation/Characteris
Given that we are talking about an individual, we cannot really use Generational Dynamics itself to identify Snowden's characteristics until well after the fact and in the context of history since individuals of all archetypes may exist during all generational eras and since the influence of parents...

Re: The Dark Ages and Generational Dynamics
I have no hard data to point to, but I think changes in birth rate may reflect general confidence. A couple who sees trouble on the horizon, even if that trouble hasn't hit yet, may decide to postpone starting a family or decide against it altogether. Even back in the 80s, I can remember people sayi...

Re: Anti-War Movement in American Crisis Period?
I'll agree with you there. When the Clash of Civilizations war starts, we *will* eventually become an all-in participant. I just think we'll continue to see anti-war sentiment until the right catalyst occurs to arouse the public. For now, our military presence and participation worldwide is mainly p...

Re: Chaos Theory and Election Results
Weathermen do this all the time, even though weather is chaos driven with climate and seasons acting as chaotic attractors. Ever notice that the forecast for several days away sometimes changes as that day draws closer? It's because the forecasters have identified new factors that have changed the p...

Re: Anti-War Movement in American Crisis Period?
Ah, point taken. However, there is a general anti-war sentiment among the general American public, wouldn't you agree? There aren't very violent anti-war protests. yes, but I think there is that mood. The same can be said about the late 30s to early 40s. There was a lot of popular resistance to hav...
