John J. Xenakis Uses Generational Dynamics Methodology to Explore Current Global Political and Economic Calamities

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 13, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- John J. Xenakis, the creator and developer of Generational Dynamics, views the world differently from most everyone else. According to Mr. Xenakis, the methodology critically analyzes historical global events through the flow of generations. The intended goal is to forecast future events by comparing today's generational attitudes and actions to those of the past.

Through historical research, Mr. Xenakis has come to believe that one global crisis after another could soon play out on the international stage. He cites a number of major influential countries, including the United States, Europe and China, as being in what he describes as a "Generational Crisis Era." This is a period where mistakes of previous generations in world history, which led to unthinkable disasters and tragedies, have been forgotten and are most likely destined to be repeated.

For example, history is repeating itself in the Pacific. World War II was so horrific for China and Japan that the survivors vowed that they would take any steps necessary to make sure it never happens to their children or grandchildren. But those survivors are rapidly disappearing, and the younger generations, with no personal memories of the horrors of WWII, are becoming increasingly nationalistic, xenophobic, and belligerent. Mr. Xenakis predicts that war between China and Japan is not very far off, with consequences for the world.

History is also repeating itself in the world financial crisis. Politicians in Europe and Washington keep "kicking the can down the road," unable to solve the problem. According to Mr. Xenakis, the reason is that no solution exists. He predicts politicians will continue to postpone and evade the problem, until some some major crisis occurs, comparable to or worse than the stock market crash of 1929.

The Mideast is another region where history is repeating itself. In 2003, when President Bush announced the "Mideast Roadmap to Peace" and the two-state solution, Mr. Xenakis predicted that the roadmap would never be implemented, and that younger generations of Arabs and Jews would re-fight the 1948 war that followed the partitioning of Palestine and the creation of the state of Israel. Since then there have been four "minor" Mideast wars, and Mr. Xenakis predicts that the worst is yet to come, including a regional war between Sunni and Shia Muslims, stretching from Algeria to Pakistan.

The Generational Dynamics forecasting methodology is non-ideological, and uses System Dynamics, Chaos Theory, and historical analysis. The 10-year old website contains thousands of articles with hundreds of predictions, all of which have come true or are trending true. None have been proven wrong.

John J. Xenakis is a graduate of MIT, an accomplished journalist, historian, technologist and consultant, mathematician, researcher and analyst. During the course of his successful career he increasingly engaged in the study and analysis of world history and how generational changes over the centuries have directly impacted the prosperity, peace and stability of nations, leading them from greatness to humiliation and back again. The result is Generational Dynamics, an unparalleled technique for analyzing history and for understanding how nations change their beliefs and attitudes as generations change.
