N2  - Two main strategies have been used for analyzing and explaining inequalities. The first and most popular strategy is “class theory” which stresses ownership and control to explain class differentiation. The second strategy is elite theory which investigates power and control and aims to analyze elite and non-elite (mass, public) differentiation. The major concern of this study will be elite theory. Therefore, firstly detailed information about elite theory will be provided. Then, its sub-theories will be examined in detail. In spite of its very important contribution to the analysis and understanding of political systems, as the result of misunderstanding and misrepresentation, elite theory has not received world-wide popularity. It has been abandoned under the shadow of class theory for long periods. Furthermore, it has been accepted as more conservative, elitist, non-egalitarian and undemocratic, and it has been disparaged and marginalized in the social sciences. The reasons for this situation can be explained by a combination of several important agents.
