Summary, etc. In the last 50 years the Bahá'í Faith has grown from a few isolated individuals to over 3,000 in 170 locations. The conclusion is that the presence and distribution of Bahá'ís has been determined primarily by their strong commitment to propagation and diffusion. Youth and Iranians were quickly integrated into the overriding ethic of dispersion, but native American members were not. Natives make up a third of membership, but there is little contact between natives and non-natives. The reserves system acts as a block to the usual Bahá'í technique of pioneering.
