Abstract
This paper explains the relationship between elite practices and
elite claims. It argues that empirical focus on the discrepancy between elite
accounts of their self and their practices can be one of the core areas of the
methodological dimensions of elite research. It would demonstrate the complex
of nature social inequalities and its reproduction. It concludes by arguing that
field work in elite research can be made more fruitful by paying close attention
to observational data and hence empirical research may look beyond “what is
said” and to reach closer to “what is done”
