    Well the people who set up new orders are usually on board with a society that continues to change dramatically and don't see themselves as the end point. If you were building a new revolutionary government, one of the best checks against stagnation and backsliding is establishing an expectation that the people will need to do another revolution at some point down the line. Any good student of revolutionary history will see that (with a few exceptions) only the revolution itself achieves progressive gains.
