Looking at the generations from the Fourth Turning perspective
#20

This is way many seem to think we are stuck and that we really aren't in Crisis mode. Awakenings, or 2Ts, on the other hand, tend to be more frontloaded with the bulk of the action at the beginning of the turning. This is way we had two social moments 20 years apart and then apparently 60.

This is a good point, one which I've been thinking about lately - it seems that Awakenings are largely a product of the movements the younger generation drives (e.g. all the movements thru the 60's & early 70's). However crisis events seem to be a product of the decisions made by a new style of leadership that is chosen ... by definition the impacts of this would take longer to develop.
