Abstract (eng)
Political consultants are emerging and „migrating“ since the late 60's more and more from their primary Work-Area to the Political Area. This Paper tries to analyze this phenomenon through a historical and sociological view of our society. From the very beginning, the Sophist could have been described now as what we know as a „Political Consultant.“ For what they have received a fee for their teaching lessons, the same process of recognizing „Knowledge“ as a „Good“ can be seen in our neoliberal state of mind. „Knowledge is power“. Does this credo comply with the fact, that Knowledge isn't accessible to everyone, therefore it creates a system of differences, rich/poor“ „wise/dumb“ etc..
Furthermore it assumes that „Power“ is held only by a small group of people in our society. This paper shows the evolution of the political consultants in our society, from 500 bef. Ch. till now.
