History repeating itself

(n.) Any unfortunate event that closely resembles a prior one, that could have been avoided had people payed attention to history.

The Conservative governments' idea to re-introduce poll tax in the 80s was history repeating itself, as the peasants revolted as they did over 600 years before. Only now, they had workers' unions and a mortgage.

a warning from history

The exact opposite of history repeating itself. This is where a party DOES take heed of what happened in the past and rectifies the plan to lead to a better future.

The big Three took a warning from history and decided not to punish Germany after world war II with another Versaille treaty.
