The old man Maccoby wrote about so many leaders that seem tied to the establishment, even about Bill Clinton's inability to keep it in his pants. It illustrates a network that is SUPER NEPOTISTIC... I used to want a word to describe religious nepotism but these people are The Family (as in Family-Friendly) and seed children between families so they are classic nepotists. And they pay-it-forward by installing each other in strategic places. Maccoby (the old man) is super interesting but I would look into his work that praises leaders more than once. He may have been useful in helping install CEOs, or "coaching them". So I would look at closer ties, not just people hopping.
