Cronyism is partiality to long-standing friends especially by appointing them to positions of authority regardless of their qualifications. Hence, cronyism is contrary in practice and principle to meritocracy (leadership selected on the basis of intellectual criteria)......Cronyism exist when the appointer and beneficiary are in social contact, often the appointer is inadequate to hold his own position of authority. And for this reason the appointer appoints individuals who will not try to weaken him or express views contrary to those of the appointer. Would anyone care to guess who the appointer is?
