First read the https://edisciplinas.usp.br/pluginfile.php/5572403/mod_resource/content/3/The%20Power%20Elite_final.pdf to make sure it has in-text citation Reply to this As Mills describes the power elite to be, "...composed of men whose positions enable them to transcend the ordinary environments of ordinary men and women; they are in positions to make decisions having major consequences" (Maciones and Benokraitis 1988:305). To me, this is someone who has more power than a President but may not be well known as the President. As a President must go through checks and balances but this elite person must make their own wise decisions and weigh out the odds. This also reminded me of the Supreme Court, they are a power elite who hold power, and make decisions for everyone like the Supreme Court case Roe v. Wade. I don't think America is alone in this, other countries hold similar positions like the Supreme Court, other countries have monarchies, and the most well-known one is North Korea, as Kim Jun-Ung holds all the power in its dictatorship. Power elites in other countries and around the globe, are essentially all the same. As in most countries, there is a group of rulers who make decisions on behalf of their country. Whether it's good or bad, they're in the position to make important and life-changing decisions for thousands of people. Mills states, "Within American society, major national power now resides in the economic, the political, and the military domains" (Maciones and Benokraitis 1988:307). Which in simpler terms is much of how most, countries rule. They're filled with military domains like the U.S. and have a larger emphasis on economic domains than ever before.
