Publisher's Summary

No time to read? Get the main key insights from this summary of William Strauss and Neil Howe’s The Fourth Turning in just a short listen.

A few key insights from Chapter 1:

1. America’s future is looking bleak. Societal standards have degraded, and people are becoming more entitled and self-focused instead of collectively working for the betterment of the nation.

2. About every two decades, America enters a new era - a new turning, totaling four turnings in the span of a century.

3. In the First Turning, the High, institutions are formed and strengthened while the power of an individual in society is weakened.

4. In the Second Turning, the Awakening, new values arise, challenging ones previously concretized during the High.
