Ray Dalio performed a great service here. While no one can be expected to hit all of the points, and Dalio can be faulted for some glaring assumptions–such as presuming that prosperity comes with the essential coordination of government, lenders, and entrepreneurs–he does successfully summarize the historical record as it pertains to world order cycles.…
