Constitutional Map
cineticdaffodil: Constitutionalism is a leftover of the liberal worldview. Just write a perfectly formulated watertight document, read it to the people and voila perfect state of affairs. Same with laws. Just flash a citizen and he is ready for action.But it turned out the surface layer is a very leaky abstraction. Culture makes and breaks societies and even worse by result, rationally designed synthetic culture works as well as socialism. And finally if a society drops beneath a treshold of riches, it regresses into tribal warfare universally.The constitution can do nothing to prevent this, but try to survive into the next sunny season unaltered. How can i filter constitutions for absence of idealizattions and utopism?
