About the book
James Burnham's 1943 study turns to theorists of elites and power, from Machiavelli and Dante in the Renaissance to Pareto, Mosca and Michels in the 20th century. With their ideas he assesses the elites of the United States in his day, concluding that they have grown weak and inflexible, tied to American liberalism in a way that wears away liberty.
Marc Andreessen named it in a set of books that together, he said, best explain how society and politics are structured today.
