The answer to this depends on the form of government in place and the balance of rights between individuals and the collective. It’s impossible to answer as stated, unfortunately.

I guess we can take some recent “approximations” of a reset event to study what happened. Look to Japan, North/South Korea, East/West Germany, Vietnam, and to some extent China after the ironically named “great leap forward”.
