Proponents of meritocracy argue that a meritocratic system is more just and more productive than other systems, and allows for the end to distinctions based on social class or race.

There have been other criticisms of the notion of meritocracy in addition to Young's original criticism that system in which social position was determined by objective characteristics would still be unegalitarian and unstable. One which is often made by proponents of critical theory concept argue that merit is defined by the power elite simply to legitimize a system in which social status is actually determined by class, birth, and wealth.

Most governmental systems contain some element of meritocracy. For instance, in most representative democracies, parties and voters use the performance of candidates in campaigning or in office to determine who should be re-elected and what senior positions they may hold. Elected officers usually also hire expert advisers to help formulate policies.

Theoretically, communist systems of government will promote those who are competent in minor decision-making roles to higher office. However, pure meritocracies are virtually unknown.

Hasrul: quote "merit is defined by the power elite simply to legitimize a system" - tu yg MCA dan DAP dok guna bila mari fasal biasiswa, dan Pemimpin UMNO dok guna dalam parti dia bila nak undi pemimpin (nak ubah dah kot). Yg MCA, DAP, GERAKAN tak mahu guna ialah "merit of the disposessed majority" yang perlukan bantuan biasiswa kerana kebanyakan mereka ini dari pribumi. These opportunists will use whatever sistem that can be legitimised for their benefit, and use the mass psychology of hate to push pribumi to a corner. These people will use other contradictory concepts to legitimise other interests of theirs. We should not be dancing to their tunes! Let the tunes of fairness as established by Islam be the uppermost.
