The term global elite refers to a socio-economic group of individuals who hold significant power and influence on a global scale. This group is often characterized by their substantial wealth, high-level decision-making roles in international politics, finance, and business, as well as their access to exclusive networks and institutions. The global elite are seen as key players in shaping global policies, economic trends, and cultural norms. In Hebrew, this term can be translated as האליטה הגלובלית (ha-elita ha-globlit). In other languages, it is known as l'élite mondiale in French, la élite global in Spanish, and die globale Elite in German. The concept of a global elite is often discussed in the context of globalization, where the interconnectedness of economies and societies has led to the concentration of power and influence among a relatively small group of individuals and organizations. Critics argue that this concentration can lead to inequalities and a lack of representation for marginalized groups, while proponents contend that the global elite drive innovation and economic growth.
