| Abstract
|
:
|
'Greedy Elites' explains why today's revolt against the 'rich and powerful' is led by billionaires and political insiders, sidelining elites' traditional enemies. It links social, economic and political theory and evidence to show how rivalries within an elite always eclipse (and co-opt) popular or class-based rebellions in driving social change.
