Abstract: Professor J. Aquilina discusses the transition from a hereditary aristocracy to a meritocratic society in Malta following the abolition of noble titles. He advocates for the new national honor, Gieħ ir-Repubblika, to be awarded based on objective merit, intellectual contribution, and public service rather than political patronage.
