OVERVIEW

"The Fourth Turning Is Here" is the riveting follow-up to "The Fourth Turning."

In 1997, the visionary narrative "The Fourth Turning," which unravels a compelling cyclical pattern etched within Anglo-American history, was penned by entrepreneur and history aficionado Neil Howe alongside William Strauss. Through meticulous analysis, the authors unveil the rhythmic cadence of history, a rhythmic pulse that echoes in units of 80 to 100 years, referred to as a saeculum, meticulously dissected into two-decade segments named turnings.

The narrative paints a vivid portrait of these four distinct turnings, each with its own distinct aura and societal disposition. The First Turning, a High, showcases an era brimming with vitality, marked by institutional fortification and diminishing individualism, signifying the rise of a fresh order. The Second Turning, the Awakening, ushers in a period of turbulence where the newly established order faces challenges and upheavals. The Third Turning, termed an Unraveling, encapsulates an era of waning institutions and burgeoning individualism as the existing order crumbles. The Fourth Turning, a Crisis, becomes the harbinger of change, heralding the transition of values and the emergence of a new civic order.

Howe's narrative delves deeply into the annals of Anglo-American saecula, spanning 700 years of history, vividly etching the historical canvas with meticulously documented examples, enriched by a plethora of charts and graphs. In his exploration, he emphasizes pivotal events while introducing four distinct archetypes that dominate each generation: the Prophet, the Nomad, the Hero, and the Artist.

Embarking on a comprehensive journey, the narrative acquaints us with the contemporary saeculum that commenced post-World War II. Despite an air of bland conformity, the United States basked in its newly discovered confidence and might during this era. The Second Turning, aptly named the "Consciousness Revolution," unravels between the tumultuous 1960s and the tax revolts of the 1980s, an era characterized by personal liberation and escalating disorder. Transitioning into the raucous "Culture Wars," the third phase unfurls with the zenith of optimism during the 1980s, only to subside amidst the exhaustion stemming from the post-9/11 conflicts in the Middle East.

Today, we find ourselves ensnared in the clutches of the fourth turning—the "Millennial Crisis." This phase ignited with the seismic tremors of the 2008 global market crash, surging ahead with the ascent of Donald Trump and the emergence of authoritarian populism. Embracing a confident tone, Howe asserts that this saeculum will reach its zenith in the early 2030s, ushering in a new era rife with a surprising number of positive facets, underpinned by America's continued global leadership.

While the notion of cyclic history may arouse skepticism among some, Howe's narrative seamlessly navigates through historical corridors with captivating flair, engaging readers with every relevant source meticulously explored. With an exhilarating narrative approach, the narrative seamlessly encapsulates both the fervent followers of cyclical history and those intrigued by the rhythmic pulse that guides the course of human events. As you embark on this enlightening journey, brace yourself for an enthralling voyage that transcends the limitations of time, guiding us through the symphony of history's cycles and illuminating the profound imprint of each generation on the grand tapestry of the future.

He later pursued a Master's degree in economics from Yale University.

Throughout his career, Howe has been a leading voice in the field of generational studies, exploring the cyclical patterns that shape societies and influence historical events. Alongside William Strauss, he co-authored several influential books, including "Generations" (1991), "The Fourth Turning" (1997), and "Millennials Rising" (2000). These works have revolutionized how we perceive history's rhythmic nature and the roles different generations play in shaping the course of events.

"The Fourth Turning" introduced the concept of cyclical generations, categorizing historical periods into four distinct turnings: High, Awakening, Unraveling, and Crisis. This model has garnered attention for its predictive insights into societal shifts and the potential outcomes of these cycles.

Neil Howe's expertise has made him a sought-after speaker, consultant, and commentator on generational trends, economic shifts, and social dynamics. His research has implications for various fields, including marketing, business strategy, and policy-making, as it offers a unique lens to understand the interplay between generational attributes and historical developments.
