systematic luck  

Definición

  • Systematic luck can be defined as consistently getting what is in one's interests because of the way society is structured, and getting this without being decisive. The term was first introduced in Keith Dowding's book Rational Choice and Political Power to explain why some groups tend to get their desired outcomes more often than their resources indicate they should.
