Answer 2

(3) Robert Michels

Explanation:

• In political science "elite theory" is a theory of the state that seeks to define & explain "power relationships" in modern society.
• The "Elitist Theory of Democracy" suggests that a "small minority" of "economic elite" members and networks of policy planning has the most power — and that this authority is independent of "democratic elections".
• Robert Michels, a Sociologist had developed an "Iron oligarchy law", where, he claims, that only few people run social and political organisations, and social organisation and division of labour are key. He believed that all organisations were elite classes, had three fundamental principles which contribute to the political organisation's bureaucratic structure
• The theory of Michels states that all "complex organisations" ultimately develop into oligarchies irrespective of how democratic they  were when they had started
