By 1700, the political model of constitutionalism was established in Britain. Compare these documents to the ideas articulated in the Magna Carta. What is the shape of the new order after the Glorious Revolution? How much had traditional power really been upended? How is the new order defended or justified? Who is left out? What and/or who is valued and what does that tell the historian?
