Topic: Societal Cycles

1 chapters across the catalog

Dr. Kirk Elliott discusses the "Fourth Turning" theory by Strauss and Howe, which describes 80-year societal cycles ending in a decisive era of crisis. The current period is characterized by a breakdown of the old civic order and the emergence of a new value system. During such climactic transitions, stable assets like gold and silver thrive as the population seeks accountability and protection from failing institutional regimes.
