Explanation:

- Vilfredo Pareto and C. Wright Mills are known for their contributions to the elite theory of power. Pareto talked about the role of elites in society, while Mills highlighted the power held by a small group of elites in the "power elite" theory.

- Robert Michels is famous for the "iron law of oligarchy," which suggests that all organizations eventually come to be dominated by a small elite.

- Anthony Giddens is not primarily associated with the elite theory of power; his work largely focuses on structuration and modernity.

- R. Presthus is known for discussing the role of elites in government and public administration.

- Robert Dahl presented a pluralist view, emphasizing multiple sources of power rather than centralized elites.
