I'm very skeptical that political history can be extrapolated into the future.

If I didn't like hearing myself talk (watching myself type?) that's basically how I'd have put it.

Useful models can be developed to try and determine why a change HAS happened and analyzing the factors that went into it, as major events like government change rarely have only one cause, or even a few clear causes, but I've always felt it's impossible to build a model to forcast with. Marx's scale, and the one the OP lists, were relevent and fairly accurate representations of the handful of civilizations they were intimately familiar with.

I think, now, cycles like these happen in several epicycles within a civilization.

The world is getting smaller and smaller, consuming is on the rise, we already have many "superpower" countries that are way out of order, like China and America. No money being invested in travel outside this little tiny spec of a planet and all the money is being invested in containment,keeping track of where each individual is and killing each other. it's pretty easy too see where hummanity itself is going if we are going too let a few run everything.
