Which one of the following is correctly matched?
AK.C. Wheare : The English Constitution
BRobert Michels : Iron Law of Oligarchy ✓ Correct
CG. Sartori : Party Politics
DBagehot : Moderate and Extreme Multi Party System
Correct answer: (B) Robert Michels : Iron Law of Oligarchy — Robert Michels with the iron law of oligarchy is correctly matched, so it is the answer.
Explanation
★Robert Michels with the iron law of oligarchy is correctly matched, so it is the answer.
★Michels set out the iron law of oligarchy in his 1911 book Political Parties (1911).
★It holds that organisations inevitably drift toward rule by a few.
★The English Constitution (1867) was written by Walter Bagehot, not K.C. Wheare.
★Moderate and extreme multiparty systems are Sartori's classification, not Bagehot's.
★So the other pairings are wrongly matched.
★Only the Michels pairing is fully correct.
