The object of Magna Carta was to keep King John under control. But I think that
the purpose of every law even the earliest written ones was to keep everybody
including the rulers from misbehaving.
But what that history matters in a country were history is a dirty word -
certainly if it precedes 1776 and is not american - from which nothing can be
learned.
The one that do not know there history is bound to repeat it.
Magna Carta is available, I think I have it somewhere, but it is mostly
superseded by later laws only three paragraphs still in force.
Let us see what America does with there Kafka moment. Might they metamorphose?
