Strauss–Howe generational theory

Strauss–Howe generational theory is a theory about how different generations in history are influenced by similar events and experiences that connect them in a larger pattern. This theory suggests that people born within a certain time frame will have similar values and attitudes because they grew up in the same era. For example, people born around the same time in the 1980s may have similar values or attitudes because the events that were happening at that time in history influenced how those people saw the world and what mattered to them. This generational theory is important for understanding how groups of people might think and act differently based on the events of their particular era.
