Answer:

According to the pluralist theory of government, government policy is formed as a result of the competition between groups with different goals and interests.

Explanation:

Political pluralism is an ideological principle that considers the division of society into different social groups with different ideas and interests as a strength and not as a weakness.

Unlike elitist theory, pluralism recognizes the participation of several groups that are not necessarily part of the elite. The parties that compete in pluralism are characterized by ideological and social heterogeneity, regardless of the economic resources they possess. It is also opposed to populism for the same reason that opposes elitism: because both defend a dualistic view of society.
