Ortega and Gasset investigated place, role, value and function of the elite in capitalist countries in line with the ideas of the classical theories of elite. The origins of the concept of elite values were articulated in the works of Pareto. Problems of the process of formation of political elites in post-Soviet political space were considered by W. Flint, V. Ilyin, S. Proleyev, M. Shulga, T. Riktor.
