Well...it's more along the lines of studying, for example, current government policies and using those to determine where future policies should go and whatnot.

On the other hand you are quite right, history doesn't die, it's just an endless loop! You can always see the past in the present whether or not those who are the movers and shakers realize how much a parallel it is.
