JWinters commented on the blog post Oligarchy Is the Problem
At the top the blog refers to my journal article with Ben Page on oligarchy in the US, and gives a link to an abstract. I’ll try to get a link here soon to the full text pdf (free).
Meantime, a somewhat more accessible article is available entitled “Oligarchy and Democracy” (focusing again on the US). It appeared recently in The American Interest magazine. You can get a pdf of the article here: http://www.bcics.northwestern.edu/news/2011/11-Winters-Oligarchy-Democracy.pdf
My book “Oligarchy” is now available on amazon. The opening theoretical chapter can be slow going (the equivalent of 20mg of ambien per page for the sleepless!), but it picks up a bit in the later chapters (including the section devoted to oligarchy in the US). -JEFFREY WINTERS
