John said clearly on many occasions that there wouldn't be a civil war. Although he wasn't perfect, his basic theory is sound enough that we recognize it.
The future of the US is uncertain and therefore the future of the world is the same. We are seeing a massive change. The youth of the US are ...

In regards to the United States of America, John had last updated the country generation as 1984 to Present (Unraveling Era). Do we know when that period has ended and when it's Crisis Era had started? That may help us figure out when the next transition from Crisis to Recovery Era would occur.

Sharing a link from Professor Jiang in relations to his Game Theory of the US/Israel - Iran War. I enjoy watching his 'theories' because they're probably about as neutral as one can be, and he makes connections that haven't been made apparent in other places.
He's a really smart guy who is quite ...

Part of the problem is that John's understanding of generational dynamics and fourth turning analysis was his breakdown and comprehension of where each country was in their cycles. Most fourth turning researchers focus their analysis on a western civilization understanding and rarely attempt to ...

As the India/Pakistan conflict is becoming heated again, due to the 26 tourists killed, I found this 1 year old video fairly informative as to the issues that Pakistan has been dealing with. They may be looking to enter a war against India as a way to distract their own population from their ...

China definitely has internal societal problems as Trevor and Navigator have pointed out. Whether those issues could be the catalyst that allow the CCP to enforce martial law and to attack Taiwan, or at least create a naval blockade around the country, I'm still not sure. If they were to attempt a ...

I think western thinkers tend to underestimate the CCP. They've been in power for a long time, essentially with a single purpose that has never changed, to become a superpower such that no other nation can ever humiliate them the same way that they were during the opium wars, during WW2 and the ...
