> Well, nations seem to be able to agree upon constitutions and laws. I would disagree and say that laws and constitutional amendments are an aggregation of decisions passed by various majorities and coalitions of minorities during several decades. If you ask any current party, even when a majority, if they agree with all the laws that currently exist they would answer a resounding "no". So that means that there doesn't exist a legal common ground, just a ground we currently stand on that various parties want to change but don't have the votes, time or alternatives for.
