Cycles often repeat throughout history: booms and busts, highs and lows, ascending and descending empires. As an expert on generational cycles, Neil Howe joins Blockworks Co-founder Mike Ippolito on this week’s episode of “On The Margin” to discuss what the cycles of history tell us about America’s next rendezvous with destiny.

As the author of best-selling book “The Fourth Turning,” Neil provides his assessment of the current saeculum, describing the post-global financial crisis era and the polarization it exacerbated. He shares his thoughts on comparisons between the fourth turning and the economic cycle, popularly phrased by Ray Dalio as the long-term debt cycle.

They also cover:

  • Russia and Ukraine
  • Central banking
  • So much more
