Kondratieff Waves and Technological Revolutions

In this chapter we reveal the interrelation between K-waves and major technological breakthroughs in history (such as the Industrial Revolution) and make forecasts about features of the sixth Kondratieff wave in the light of the theory of Cybernetic Revolution that, from our point of view, started in the 1950s and will be completed in the 2060s or 2070s.
