Introduction: An Anthropological Perspective on Elite Power and the Cultural Politics of Elites / T.Salverda & J.Abbink -- Researching Elites: Old and New Perspectives / H.Schijf -- Land, Historicity, and Lifestyle: Capital and its Conversions among the Gentry in Poland / L.Jakubowska -- Continuity and Change as Two Identifying Principles amongst Nepalese Nobility / S.Lotter -- Beyond Wealth and Pleasant Posture: Exploring Elite Competition in the Patronage Democracy of Indonesia / D.Simandjuntak -- In Defense: Elite Power / T.Salverda -- Pupillage: The Shaping of a Professional Elite / F.Pirie & J.Rogers -- Becoming Elite: Exclusion, Excellence and Collective Identity in Ireland's Top Fee-paying Schools / A.Courtois -- Financial Professionals as a Global Elite / H.Ortiz -- Management Consultants at Work with Clients: Maintenance and Contestation of Elite Status / I.S.Smith -- Money Relations, Ideology and the Formation of a Cosmopolitan Elite at the Frontier of Transnational Capitalism: An Ethnographic Study of African Finance Professionals in Johannesburg / F.Bourgouin.

"A fascinating array of ethnographic and theoretical relevant case studies, this book is timely and topical in combining substantial new historical and ethnographic material about elites. Case studies include the Polish gentry, the white former colonial elite of Mauritius, professional elites, and transnational (financial) elites, with queries about power, culture, distinction, and marginalization. The focus on elites from an anthropological perspective makes a significant contribution to explaining numerous and often paradoxical aspects of elites, their behavior, their position and their relationship with other social groupings."--Publisher's website.
