Salwa Houmsi explores the question of whether elites have played a part in the rise of populists in Europe. And: Do elites also play a role in the cultural world?

Even the future elite don’t want to be labelled as such: The Schloss Neubeuern boarding school in Bavaria advertises an outstanding education, with a wide range of opportunities open to pupils after their time at school. Small classes with one dress code: smart business.
A place at the boarding school costs just under 4,000 euros per month. The teenagers can already try their hand at networking in direct dialogue with representatives from business and politics.
If you want to be part of Germany’s economic elite, do you have to adapt to the social conventions of the boardroom?
