I've observed that too, and it's truly a shame. I mean, if it's necessary to understand history for no other reason, it's precisely because 200 year-old politics is still relevant, being the basis for, say, 100 year-old politics, which is in turn the basis for 50 year-old politics, and so on until the present... But what was the context of this particular explanation?
