    Timocracy is a government form of the rule of individuals that possess property. Extreme forms of Timocracy come in the form of power purely from wealth, similar to Plutocracy.

    History

    The term "timocracy" is found in Plato and Aristotle. It is also mentioned in the writings of Xenophon.

    According to Plato, who outlined the ideas of Socrates, timocracy — the power of ambitious people, is a negative form of government, along with oligarchy, democracy and tyranny. According to Plato, timocracy tends to turn into an oligarchy as the ruling class accumulates wealth. Plato argues that democracy arises after aristocracy, when a new generation is born. Plato also said that their interests are above the state

    According to Aristotle, timocracy is a positive form of government that tends to transition into a negative form — democracy, because these types of government have a common facet: timocracy also wants to be the power of a large number of people, and with it all belonging to the same category are equal.

    An example of timocracy is considered to be the state system in Athens, established in the VI century BC as a result of the reforms of Solon, and in Rome after the reforms attributed to Servius Tullius.
