Magnetism can not be a consequence of a theory.
If Einstein is correct he exposed fundamentals.

Yes, that's right. It is the case, however, that if you assume Coulomb's law and special relativity, then you can derive all of the Mawxwell equations. You don't have to postulate a magnetic field, Faraday's laws etc. It can all be derived mathematically.
