AbstractThe government has been solicitous in the past to respect graves, fung shui, and other manifestations of indigenous values, and the wishes and legitimate expectations of inhabitants must of course always be taken into account by enlightened administrators -- in many cases administrative law requires it. But good government cannot be the prisoner of mouldering old documents with no authority in law.
