Abstract: | An increasing amount of empirical evidence has accumulated showing the existence of several kinds of recurrent long-term societal processes. Particular attention was given to the 50-60 year billows, usually related to economical and technological processes. The paradigm of long-term societal processes was not always accepted because of the lack of a consistent theoretical framework that couls account for it. |
