Elite theory of power is developed by :
Answer: A
The elite theory of power was developed by Vilfredo Pareto.
Pareto, with Gaetano Mosca and later Robert Michels, argued that every society is ruled by a minority, the elite. In his theory of the 'circulation of elites', governing elites of 'lions' (who rule by force) and 'foxes' (who rule by cunning) rise and decline in turn.
Talcott Parsons saw power as a generalised capacity of the social system, not an elite possession. Friedrich Engels and Ralph Miliband are Marxists, who explain power through class, with the state serving the dominant class.
