So, 4-ch, what do you think about Strauss and Howe's Generational Theory? Do you believe that it is a great theory, or is it just another form of pseudoscience? It is a pretty complex theory, but in short, they believe that history has been driven by generations and their place in history. They also say that these generations are divided into four archetypes, the visionary Prophets (Baby Boomers), the pragmatic Nomads (Generation X), rationalist Heroes (Greatest Generation and Generation Y [AKA "Millenials"]), and diplomatic Artists (Silent Generation). Here's a few links to websites that have further information on this:
