Abstract

Gazing upon today’s European judicial landscape, one may have the feeling that the final battle of the ancient gods of democracy is about to make itself heard. When that gaze extends itself through History, as the title of this paper suggests, we might even hear the notes of Wagner’s magnum opus and all that comes with it, including the eternal return of the same, but strangely different.Different actors in different situations but with the same type of utterances.
