Michels argued that an iron law of oligarchy exists such that even in democratic organizations, be they socialist or capitalist, rule by the many will inevitably become rule by the few.  

An oligarchy is a form of government in which most of the political power effectively rests with a small segment of society, typically the people who have the most wealth, military strength, ruthlessness or political influence. The word "oligarchy" from the Greek words olígos, which means "few," and archo, which means "to rule". Some political theorists have argued that all societies are inevitably oligarchies, regardless of their supposed political system.
