This is the definition I am using:

a system, organization, or society in which people are chosen and moved into positions of success, power, and influence on the basis of their demonstrated abilities and merit.

    I believe in the theory of a meritocracy, I even think it could work.

    I don’t believe it exists anywhere in the world in practice where power and money are at play.
