Generational dynamics Generational Dynamics is a branch of Analytic History that determines historical patterns by analyzing generational changes. It distinguishes between two kinds of wars, crisis wars and non-crisis wars, where crisis wars are the worst and most genocidal wars.
Generationism Generationism is the belief that a specific generation has inherent traits which may be labeled inferior or superior to the traits of another generation. The term is usually applied to claims of superiority in the expressed values, valuations, lifestyles and general beliefs of one generation compared to those of another, where objectively verifiable criteria substantiating the claim of superiority in themselves are lacking.
Generations (book) William Strauss and Neil Howe, in their books Generations (ISBN 0-688-11912-3) (1992) and The Fourth Turning, divide Anglo-American history into saecula, or seasonal cycles of history. These saecula are further divided into generations by birth year and are classified as one of four types of generations or historical periods.

Generations of Adam The generations of Adam are the two lines of descent from Adam, both ending in the name Lamech, which are given in Genesis. Lamech, the descendant of Cain, at the end of one line is described as the father of Yaval and Yuval (from his first wife Ada) and Tuval Kayin and Na'ama (from his second wife, Tzelah).
Generative art Generative art refers to art that has been generated, composed, or constructed in an algorithmic manner through the use of systems defined by computer software algorithms, or similar mathematical or mechanical or randomised autonomous processes.
Generative Anthropology Generative Anthropology is a new science of the human based on the idea that the origin of language is a singular event and that the history of the culture is a genetic or "generative" development of that event. In contrast to fashionable methodologies that dissolve the human in the fractal complexity of cultural differences, Generative Anthropology (GA) attempts to understand cultural phenomena in the simplest terms possible: all things human are traced back to their source in the hypothetical scene of origin in which human beings as sign-using creatures first emerged.
Generative grammar In linguistics, generative grammar generally refers to a proof-theoretic framework for the study of syntax partially inspired by formal grammar theory and pioneered by Noam Chomsky. A generative grammar is a set of rules that recursively "specify" or "generate" the well-formed expressions of a natural language.
Generative linguistics Generative linguistics is a school of thought within linguistics that makes use of the concept of a generative grammar. The term "generative grammar" is used in different ways by different people, and the term "generative linguistics" therefore has a range of different, though overlapping, meanings.
Generative Linguistics in the Old World Generative Linguistics in the Old World (known by its acronym GLOW) is an international organization, founded in 1977 and based in the Netherlands. Its goal is to further the study of Generative Grammar by organizing an annual linguistics conference and periodical summer schools, and by publishing a newsletter that discusses current intellectual (and organizational) issues in the study of Generative Grammar.

Generative Modelling Language The GML is a very simple programming language for the concise description of complex 3D shapes. It follows the "Generative Modelling" paradigm, where complex datasets are represented by lists of operations rather than by lists of objects, which is for instance the case in a relational database.
Generative programming Generative programming is a style of computer programming that uses automated source code creation through generic classes, templates, aspects, and code generators to improve programmer productivity. It is often related to code-reuse topics such as component-oriented programming.
Generative sciences The generative sciences (or generative science) are the interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary sciences that explore the natural world and its complex behaviours as a generative process. Generative science shows how deterministic and finite rules and parameters in the natural phenomena interact with each other to generate indeterministic and infinite behaviour.

Generic point In mathematics, in the fields of general topology and particularly of algebraic geometry, a generic point P of a topological space X is a point such that every point Q of X is a specialization of P, in the sense of the specialization order (or preorder). This concept only matters for spaces that are not Hausdorff spaces, because a Hausdorff space with a generic point P can only be the singleton set {P}.
Generic polynomial In Galois theory, a generic polynomial for a finite group G and field F is a monic polynomial P with coefficients in the field L = F(t1, ..., tn) of F with n indeterminates adjoined, such that the splitting field M of P has Galois group G over L, and such that every extension K/F with Galois group G can be obtained as the splitting field of a polynomial which is the specialization of P resulting from setting the n indeterminates to n elements of F.
Generic programming Generic programming is a way of computer programming where algorithms are written in an extended grammar and are made adaptable by specifying variable parts that are then somehow instantiated later by the compiler with respect to the base grammar. Specifically, the extended grammar raises a non-variable element or implicit construct in the base grammar to a variable or constant and allows generic code to be used, usually implementing common software patterns that are already expressible in the base language.
Generic role-playing game system A generic role-playing game system or universal role-playing game system is a role-playing game system designed to be independent of setting and genre. Its rules should, in theory, work the same way for any setting, world, environment, or genre that one would want to play.

Genetic algorithm A genetic algorithm (or short GA) is a search technique used in computing to find true or approximate solutions to optimization and search problems. Genetic algorithms are categorized as global search heuristics.
Genetic assimilation Note: Genetic assimilation is sometimes used to describe "eventual extinction of a natural species as massive pollen flow occurs from another related species and the older crop becomes more like the new crop." This usage is unrelated to the usage below.
Genetic association Studies concerning genetic association aim to test whether single-locus alleles or genotype frequencies (or more generally, multilocus haplotype frequencies) are different between 2 groups (usually diseased subjects and healthy controls). Genetic association studies are based on the principle that genotypes are measured "directly", i.
Genetic code The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells. Specifically, the code defines a mapping between tri-nucleotide sequences called codons and amino acids; every triplet of nucleotides in a nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid.
Genetic counseling Genetic counseling is the process by which patients or relatives, at risk of an inherited disorder, are advised of the consequences and nature of the disorder, the probability of developing or transmitting it, and the options open to them in management and family planning in order to prevent, avoid or ameliorate it. This complex process can be seen from diagnostic (the actual estimation of risk) and supportive aspects.
Genetic discrimination Genetic discrimination occurs when people are treated differently by their employer or insurance company because they have a gene mutation that causes or increases the risk of an inherited disorder. People who undergo genetic testing may be at risk for genetic discrimination.
Genetic disorder A genetic disorder, or genetic disease, is a condition caused by abnormal expression of one or more genes resulting in a clinical phenotype. Some disorders may confer an advantage, at least in certain environments.
Genetic divergence Genetic divergence is the method of detecting and artificially directing two or more desired genetic characteristics that have occurred naturally over time and passing these divergences from one generation to subsequent generations. The genetic characters can be observable structures from different species or they can be molecular entities, such as genes or pathways.
Genetic drift In population genetics, genetic drift is the statistical effect that results from the influence that chance has on the success of alleles (variants of a gene). The effect may cause an allele and the biological trait that it confers to become more common or more rare over successive generations.
Genetic evolution Genetic evolution refers to the change in gene frequency, which is the frequency of alleles in a breeding population from generation to generation. This term is used by population genetics for a more specific definition than the one given for the term evolution (“descent with modification over the generations”).
Genetic fingerprinting Genetic fingerprinting, DNA testing, DNA typing, and DNA profiling are techniques used to distinguish between individuals of the same species using only samples of their DNA. Its invention by Sir Alec Jeffreys at the University of Leicester was announced in 1985.
Genetic hitchhiking Genetic hitchhiking is the process by which an evolutionarily neutral or in some cases deleterious allele or mutation may spread through the gene pool by virtue of being linked to a beneficial mutation. Proximity on a chromosome may allow genes to be dragged through the selection process due to an advantageous gene nearby.
Genetic Information Research Institute The Genetic Information Research Institute (GIRI) is a non-profit institution that was founded in 1994 by Jerzy Jurka. GIRI maintains Repbase Update, a database of prototypic sequences representing repetitive DNA from different eukaryotic species, and Repbase Reports, an electronic journal established in 2001.
Genetic load In population genetics, genetic load or genetic burden is a measure of the cost of lost alleles due to selection (selectional load) or mutation (mutational load). It is a value in the range 0 < {L} < 1, where 0 represents no load.
Genetic origins of Down syndrome Down syndrome is a chromosomal abnormality characterized by the presence of an extra copy of genetic material on the 21st chromosome, either in whole (trisomy 21) or part (such as due to translocations). The effects of the extra copy varies greatly from individual to individual, depending on the extent of the extra copy, genetic background, environmental factors, and random chance.
Genetic origins of the Kurds Genetic testings amongst randomly chosen Kurdish populations has began to shed light into the disparate origins of the Kurds. The results reveal a variety of connections amongst the Kurds including regional variations and different links to the past when assessing paternal and maternal lineagesrefer to: Where West Meets East: The Complex mtDNA Landscape of the Southwest and Central Asian Corridor for further analysis regarding the many common genetic markers found amongst Middle Eastern populations.
Genetic pathway A Genetic pathway is the set of interactions occurring between a group of genes who depend on each other's individual functions in order to make the aggregate function of the network available to the cell. Commonly, pathways are shown using the same graphical conventions as graph theory with individual genes being presented as nodes or vertices in the image while the informational interactions between genes are indicated by drawn lines commonly referred to as graph edges or graph connections.
Genetic predisposition A genetic predisposition is a genetic effect which influences the phenotype of an organism but which can be modified by the environmental conditions. Genetic testing is able to identify individuals who are genetically predisposed to certain health problems.
Genetic recombination Genetic recombination is the transmission-genetic process by which the combinations of alleles observed at different loci in two parental individuals become shuffled in offspring individuals. This definition is not commonly used in classical transmission genetics, evolutionary biology, and population genetics.
Genetic redundancy Genetic redundancy is seen when a mutation in a gene has little effect on an organism's phenotype because its lost activity is compensated for by the function of a different gene or genetic pathway. In classical Mendelian genetics experiments this manifests as a form of epistasis where the vast majority of the progeny of a dihybrid cross have normal or near normal phenotypes and only the double homozygous recessive genotype shows a severe mutant phenotype.
Genetic relationship A Genetic relationship, in linguistics is the relationship which exists among languages as a result of being members of the same language family or language group--that is, either being derived from, or acting as ancestor of, each other. Contact, by definition, does not lead to a genetic relationship.
Genetic resistance Genetic resistance is resistance to a virus that occurs after the prior generations have survived it. For example the body remembers how to fight chicken pox, and passes along the helpful instructions of how to cure chicken pox on to its offspring.
Genetic screen A genetic screen (often shortened to screen) is a procedure or test to identify and select individuals who possess a phenotype of interest. A genetic screen for new genes is often referred to as forward genetics as opposed to reverse genetics, the term for identifying mutant alleles in genes that are already known.
Genetic testing Genetic testing allows the genetic diagnosis of vulnerabilities to inherited diseases, and can also be used to determine a person's ancestry. Every person carries two copies of every gene, one inherited from their mother, one inherited from their father.
Genetic variation Genetic variation refers to the variation in the genetic material of a population or species, and includes the nuclear, mitochodrial, ribosomal genomes as well as the genomes of other organelles. New genetic variation is caused by genetic mutation, which may take the form of recombination, migration and/or alterations in the karyotype (the number, shape, size and internal arrangement of the chromosomes).
Genetic viability To be genetically viable, having a realistic chance of avoiding the problems of inbreeding, a population of animals requires a certain amount of genetic diversity, and consequently a certain minimum number of members. See effective population size.
Genetically modified food A genetically modified food is a product developed from a different genetically modified organism (GMO) such as a crop plant, animal or microorganism. Genetically modified foods produced by genetic engineering have been available since the 1990s.

Genetics Genetics (from the Greek genno γεννώ= give birth) is the science of genes, heredity, and the variation of organisms. The word "genetics" was first suggested to describe the study of inheritance and the science of variation by the prominent British scientist William Bateson in a personal letter to Adam Sedgwick, dated April 18, 1905.
Genetics and Archaeogenetics of South Asia There has been significant progress in genetic and archaeogenetic studies of the Indian caste populations in the last five years (as of 2006); this has implications for the Indo-Aryan migration/invasion theory. The studies could be broadly classified into pro-racial and pro-cultural.
Genetics and the Book of Mormon The Book of Mormon, one of the four books of scripture of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (see Standard Works), is purported to be an account of a relatively small number of Hebrew individuals who emigrated from the Middle East to the Americas during biblical times and later grew into large civilizations. Since the late 1990s and the pioneering work of Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza and others, scientists have developed techniques that attempt to use genetic markers to indicate the ethnic background and history of individual people.
Genetics and the Origin of Species Genetics and the Origin of Species (ISBN 0-231-05475-0) is a 1937 book by the Ukrainian-American evolutionary biologist Theodosius Dobzhansky and one of the important books of the modern evolutionary synthesis. A third edition was published in 1951.
Genetics and violence Scientific interest in the correlation between genetic factors and violence dates back to the eugenics movement of the 19th century. Because of the Nazi and racist associations with eugenics, this study fell into disrepute from the 1960s through the 1980s, when the prevalent view was that environment was the primary determinant of behavior.
