Gaetano Mosca (April 1, 1858 – November 8, 1941) was an Italian political scientist, journalist and public servant. He is credited with developing the ''Theory of Elitism'' and the doctrine of the ''Political class'' and is one of the three members constituting the ''Italian School of Elitists'' together with Vilfredo Pareto and Robert Michels.〔Robert A. Nye, ''The Anti-Democratic Sources of Elite Theory: Pareto, Mosca, Michels,'' Sage, 1977.〕 == Life == Mosca earned a degree in law from the University of Palermo in 1881. In 1887 he moved to Rome and took a position as editor of proceedings of the Chamber of Deputies of Italy. Having taught occasionally at Palermo and Rome, Mosca became chair of constitutional law at the University of Turin in 1896. He would hold this position until 1924, when he settled permanently in Rome to occupy the chair of public law at the University of Rome. Mosca held several other academic positions throughout his life. In 1909 Mosca was elected to the Chamber of Deputies of Italy, in which he served until 1919. During this time, he served as Under-secretary for the Colonies from 1914 until 1916. In 1919, Mosca was nominated life senator of the Kingdom of Italy. He served actively in this capacity until 1926. During the Fascist dictatorship, Mosca retired to teach and research. During this time, Mosca also worked as a political journalist for the ''Corriere della Sera'' of Milan (after 1901) and the ''Tribuna'' of Rome (from 1911 to 1921).〔A.. Colombo, ("L'eredità di Gaetano Mosca" ), ''Corriere della Sera'', August 8, 2010, p. 38.〕 Mosca is most famous, however, for his works of political theory.
