Refletindo sobre elites

Meinhard Miegel

Resumo


In this paper the author recovers the classical meaning of elite, distinguishing
three application spheres of the concept: origin elite, position
elite, and work elite, analyzed in the context of modern democratic societies.
The role of the work elite, essentially innovatory, is emphasized in the
frame of growing economic and ecological limits, which propose once
more the notion of humanly acceptable development.
