(If it's a much better, and shorter version of MMs thoughts on elite theory is what you're looking for, "The Populist Delusion" by Neema Parvini and/or "The Machiavellians: Defenders of Freedom" by James Burnham are excellent. If this kind of thing floats your boat, beware. This is a mind bending rabbit hole.)
