Provisional remarksa) High involvement in organizational
alliances (many major partners) greater segmentation of organizational fields (ties concentrated within ethnic & migrant groups)
b) Low involvement in organizational alliances (fewer major partners) greater integration of organizational fields (with key role for autochtonous organizations)
c) Social capital does not always yield cohesion
