Evidence from a small settlement in Tuscany suggests that even where people have face-to-face contact across a range of social contexts, the allocation of prestige and of leadership roles in voluntary associations may be made with relatively impersonal criteria. This is not what Wirth's argument, as modified by Dewey, would lead one to expect.ZusammenfassungDie Forschungsergebnisse aus einer kleinen Siedlung in der Toscana zeigen, daß selbst dort, wo die Leute persönlichen Kontakt über verschiedene soziale Bereiche hinweg haben, die Verteilung von Prestige und Führungsrollen in freiwilligen Vereinigungen trotzdem nach relativ unpersönlichen Kriterien erfolgen kann. Dieses Ergebnis würde man nach Wirths Ausführungen oder deren Modifikation durch Dewey nicht erwarten
