为什么值得读
- 建立合理的世代社会循环理论模型
- 透彻解释危机、停滞与代际差异背后的结构原因
- 比碎片化的抱怨更具全局视角和理论框架
William Strauss 与 Neil Howe 的合作始于20世纪80年代末，当时他们开始撰写他们的第一本书《Generations》，该书将美国历史讲述为追溯至1584年的一连串世代传记。两人此前都曾撰写过世代相关主题的文章 […] 作者对世代作为一个更广泛议题的兴趣，始于他们在华盛顿特区相遇并开始探讨彼此过往研究之间的联系。他们好奇为何 Boomers（婴儿潮一代）和 G.I.s（大兵一代）会形成如此截然不同的世界观，以及究竟是这些世代的成长经历中的什么因素

……这个见解真的很棒，让我想起了罗恩·萨斯金德（Ron Suskind）写乔治·W·布什“基于信仰”的总统任期的《Without a Doubt》。我认为施特劳斯和豪（Strauss & Howe）的历史周期模型（参见：《Generations》、《The Fourth Turning》）相当准确。“第三转折期”（Third Turnings）的特点是混乱、社会经济停滞或倒退，以及猖獗的不平等；而“第四转折期”（Fourth Turnings）则是危机、困境和快速的社会……
…This is a really great insight, and it reminds me of Ron Suskind's "Without a Doubt", on the "faith-based" presidency of George W. Bush. I think the Strauss and Howe model of cyclical history (see: Generations, The Fourth Turning) is fairly accurate. Third Turnings are characterized by confusion, socioeconomic stagnation/reversion, and rampant inequality; Fourth Turnings, by crisis, hardship and rapid social…
……美国有史以来最厉害的。X世代在很多方面可能与“最伟大的一代”平分秋色，而Y世代/千禧一代现在下结论还为时尚早，但看起来肯定比婴儿潮一代要强。施特劳斯和豪的书《Generations》或《Fourth Turning》看起来挺有道理的。（http://www.timepage.org/time.html）虽然我也许不会按下“消除婴儿潮一代”的按钮（可能吧……），但这样做基本上能解决大部分主要问题……
…the US of all time. Gen X was probably on par with the Greatest Generation in many ways, and Gen Y/Mill are too soon to tell, but certainly appear better than Baby Boomers. Strauss and Howe's book "Generations" or "Fourth Turning" seems pretty reasonable. (http://www.timepage.org/time.html) While I might not push the "redact the boomers" button (maybe...), it would pretty much fix all of the major problems…
在施特劳斯和豪的书《Generations》中（我强烈建议读一读，或者看看维基百科上关于他们社会周期理论的解释：http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generations_(book)），他们讲得很直白：无论哪一代人……
In Strauss and Howe's book Generations (I highly recommend reading it, if not visiting this Wiki explanation on their theories of social cycles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generations_(book)), they say very simply that whatever Generation…
天哪，可别看让·特温格（Jean Twenge）。各位，拜托，拜托去读施特劳斯和豪的书《Generations》，别看让·特温格。她在脱离其他代际理论背景的情况下，对各代人（尤其是千禧一代和国土一代等年轻世代）做出了极其吹毛求疵的评价。那些东西……
Oh god, not Jean Twenge. People, please, please read the Strauss and Howe book (Generations), not Jean Twenge. She makes overly-cranky observations about generations (especially younger ones, like Millennials and Homelanders) without the context of the rest of generational theory. The things…
……用电脑把它制作出来！现在极简主义已经过时了。我怀疑Z世代会对它提出一些小小的反对意见。但真正的颠覆性变革还要再等一代人。我最近读了尼尔·豪和威廉·施特劳斯写的《Generations》。他们在书中提出，一个代际周期存在4种原型——理想主义者（婴儿潮一代）、反应型（X世代）、公民型（千禧一代）和适应型（Z世代）。理想主义者……
…using their computers to produce it! Now minimalism is old hat. I suspect that Gen Z will make some minor statements against it. But the big disruption won't come for another generation. I recently read Generations by Neil Howe and William Strauss. In the book they make the case that their are 4 archetypes to a generation cycle - Idealist (boomer), Reactive (gen x), Civic (millennial) and Adaptive (gen z). Idealists…
……会让你成为自由意志主义者；在嬉皮士时代成年会让你成为左翼；而经历大萧条和二战则会让你成为威权主义者”。我并不赞同书里的所有观点，但《Generations》（http://www.amazon.com/Generations-History-Americas-Future-15... ）这本书的核心论点差不多就是这个方向。考虑到OKC的数据全部来自很短的一段时间，根本没办法……
…makes you a libertarian; coming of age in the hippy era makes you a leftist, and living through the Great Depression and WWII makes you an authoritarian". I don't endorse everything in it, but the book _Generations_ ( http://www.amazon.com/Generations-History-Americas-Future-15... ) argues something pretty much in this direction. Given that OKC's data is all from a very short period of time, there's no way to…
