I support the Great Recession camp, though there were 4T like traits in the 2006-8 pop culture like the rise of social media (MySpace). The 2001-5 period was pure 3T and the general theme of this Crisis has nothing to do with al-Qaeda and the war on terror.
In the US, the mood started to shift after Katrina, but the nail in the coffin was the Great Recession. I've been in the 2005-6 camp in the past, but the impacts never aligned with the trigger, if the storm response was it. Just look at the poor response to Maria in Puerto Rico. Disgraceful after the lesson Katrina provided.
So it's either money or war, and it seems to be money this time.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
