epistocracia
  51

Neologism for what was historically called "qualified vote", in which i could only choose the most capable, the most cultured, the male, the adult, This version goes so far as to propose methods to assume by statistics who someone would vote for even if I wasn't ready to do it. I do not stop to tear down theorists who prefer to limit the vote rather than educate the voter, but I will deal with the etymology. First confuse the suffix _cracia with voters, when it comes to rulers ('democracy' is a special case); and perhaps it must have been 'epistemocracy' ('the government of knowledge, of the wisest'), since 'epistocracy' can be mistaken for "the government of the relatives or close friends" of the Greek 949; 960; 953; 963; 964; 953; 959; 962; , variant of 949; 966; 949; 963; 964; 953; 959; 962; (epistios, variant of efestios "the family, those who live in the home") but as it refers to the vows and not the government, not even with that.
