Elite Capture in Pakistan I Are Elites really that bad? I اشرافیہ کا قبضہ؟

#Elite has been defined in different ways, especially in the developing and under-developed world. Rich is often confused with “elite”. Furthermore, income inequality brews constant hate against the elite, even if it is white money. The gap between the common populace and elites (whichever way they are conceived) is widening. What can be done in this regard? How can this gap be bridged?
- How do we define elites?
- What do we mean by the term #EliteCapture?
- Review and identify the process and tools of elite capture.
- Are elites really that bad? Are most of the positive changes not led by elites?
- Is elite capture not inevitable? In fact, is the state not defined and regulated by the elite in all countries and through history.
- Is this just to voice the “absence of #merit?’ Why is merit missing in #Pakistan?
