Just a gentle question, the same one I'd ask myself:
>> No year is to be given a privileged position when starting a
cyclical analysis. There is no "generation" identifiable anywhere except
in relation to yourself and yourself alone. To arbitrarily assert
otherwise is to commit a category error in analysis.

Have you actually read the work in question? (_The Fourth Turning_).
If not, how can you be sure you know what their actual thinking is?
Or doesn't that matter--is a kneejerk reaction based on second- or nth-
hand opinion all you're up for?
Methinks I hear a category error in analysis, but not the one you hear...
