The most notorious example to date is the Weimar Republic, as the German Reich was called between 1918/9-1933. This example has served as a constant warning for all democratic systems since then, and is therefore always present and relevant. It is not for a social or cultural historian to intervene in a purely professional discussion of jurists or legal historians concerning the question of constitution, law and democracy. His aim is to concentrate on the complex relationship between the social and cultural contexts and the constitutional text and subtext.
