'''Oligarchy''' is a political system where a small group of individuals are the collective rulers, usually indirectly through lobbying a head of state, though this group can rule directly in some cases. This group may or may not be distinguished from the masses by one or several traits such as [[File:Gero.png]] [[Gerontocracy|age]] and/or [[File:Plutocrat.png]] [[Plutocracy|wealth]].
Line 126 ⟶ 205:
 
The first oligarchies that are documented appeared in [[File:Cball-Greece.png]] Ancient Greece, such examples could be shown as the Thirty Tyrants of Athens or the Spartan system of "rotating" ephors, which limited the power of the kings. Which was heavily criticised by Plato and Aristotle.
However, the widespread opinion in his time about the need for a property qualification in the election of the most worthy — as it happened in Carthage — Aristotle also rejected it because of the actual " purchase of power”power».
 
Aristotle defined the Oligarchy in '''four''' types:
Line 192 ⟶ 271:
The Pareto principle can be seen in the polcompball community, with [https://www.reddit.com/user/Caltrop_/comments/ieh96t/rpolcompball_flair_data_20aug2020/ 20% of users receiving 90% of upvotes](though this data may be out of date now). The wiki is also an example of a formal oligarchy, being moderated by a council, not a single dictator.
 
Another example of statistical likelihood of Oligarchical systems to emerge, even if only situationally, is Robert Michel's Iron Law of Oligarchy, which is a rule stating that fundamentally all large organisations are oligarchical in nature and any attempt at getting rid of such a structure fundamentally (such as done in Socialist Parties and Trade Unions) only ends up re-enforcing it.
 
Other justifications for oligarchy include believing that no one man should have all the power or wanting representation of several groups at once.
