Classe Social, Elite Política E Elite De Classe: Por Uma Análise Societalista Da Política, Renato Perissinotto, Adriano Codato

Adriano Codato

The article retakes a traditional question in social theory, that is, the opposition between the concepts of social class and élite , already discussed by authors like Aron, Wright Mills, Bottomore, Giddens, Therborn and others. It is not our intention to present any original theoretical contribution. Our main purpose is to insist on the analytical advantages and practical difficulties of this conceptual joint and, at the same time, to make out a case for the concept of class élite as one that makes it possible a class analysis of politics.
