The document discusses the theories of pluralism, elitism, and civil society. Pluralism recognizes different types of organizations in society and that politics involves free choice. It was developed by Otto Von Gierke in the late 19th century. Elitism holds that power is concentrated among ruling elites rather than being evenly distributed. Civil society consists of voluntary citizen groups and organizations working on shared interests or goals for social change, and non-governmental organizations provide an intermediary between the government and citizens.
