The HBS hosts discuss whether or not generational tags\u2013 \u201cBoomer,\u201d \u201cGenX,\u201d \u201cMillennial,\u201d and \u201cGen Z\u201d\u2013 are useful descriptions or just gerrymandered groups.

Are you Gen Z, a Boomer, Gen X? We don\u2019t know either but in this episode Dr. Rick Lee leads a discussion to try to figure out whether these generational designations have any stable meaning. Do they make sense as organizational categories. Are they Objective Types, Natural Kind, or Gerrymandered Sets? Do generational markers say more than gender, racial, class, ability in terms of identity? We ask about the dates of generations, the characteristics of generations and generational self-consciousness.
