I’d like to know if they distinguish in-small-world density from overall density including weak/non-local links. But am feeling too lazy to actually read... cc @vinaydebrouhttps://twitter.com/mutual_ayyde/status/1349545175517782017 …
To my own point (may be unrelated to point of paper), in academia, I suspect being densely networked within a discipline increases your chances of finishing a PhD, getting a job, getting tenure etc. But being interdisciplinarily densely networked probably worsens chances.
In the US, I suspect being densely networked within a smaller city and/or sectoral oligarch network gets you a winning GOP ticket more easily, gerrymandered for your convenience. Big city/global network or Pan-sectoral wealth connections (banking etc) gets you Democratic ticket.
No, there is no consideration of cross-city links.
'apolitical' local associations (clubs & societies) in small cities were actively targeted by Nazi Party in its early days to recruit local 'opinion leaders' & then co-opt thier existing social capital to recruit members.
In cities with higher density of these existing social clusters, there was faster membership growth for the Nazi party. 1. Mainly petty burgeoise (middle class + small-business) & not the blue-collar workers, gathered regularly in these spaces. That was the target demographic.
To be more precise towards your question: the paper investigated the correlation with the overall density of associations in a city. Unsurprisingly, cross-association links are attributed in anecdotal discussion for enabling faster recruitment but no data analysis on that.
