Noocracy

Noocracy, or "aristocracy of the wise", as defined by Plato, is a social and political system that is "based on the priority of human mind", according to Vernadsky.
The word itself is derived from Greek 'nous', Gen. 'noos' meaning 'mind', 'intellect', and 'kratos', 'authority', 'power'. One of the first attempts to implement such political system was perhaps Pythagoras' "city of the wise" that he planned to build in Italy together with his followers, the order of "mathematikoi". In modern history, similar concepts were introduced by Vernadsky, who did not use this term however, but the term "noosphere", and Franc.
Noocracy is considered to be the future political system of entire human race, to replace the democracy, "the authority of the crowd", as defined by Plato, and other forms of government.
