Who among the following elite theorists said, "A man is effective in society as a whole, not so much because of his individual qualities as because of the social energies which have been deposited in him by the mass" ?
Answer: B
The words that a man is effective in society as a whole not so much because of individual qualities as because of the social energies deposited in him by the mass are by Ortega y Gasset, the Spanish philosopher of The Revolt of the Masses. His elite theory holds that the minority and the masses depend on each other and that the minority draws its power from the mass. Pareto, Michels and Mosca are the other classical elite theorists, known respectively for the circulation of elites, the iron law of oligarchy, and the ruling class. Option B is correct.
