Editorial reviewA strong contextual entry point for chronology, institutions and public events when official records are distinguished from later interpretation. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1973, 1976—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1973-10-16. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Second, Bratteli and cabinet providing the first useful test.
