答案是2吧？不是没有，而是错了
1选项These were essentially professional associations that provided for the mutual aid and protection of their members, and allowed for the maintenance of professional standards. 保护members相当于选项中“support”，professional standard= high-quality craft production.
2选项错误，文中the multiplicity of small-scale local egalitarian ，他说a broad geographic area
3选项最后following their own popularly elected leaders
4选项最后governing themselves by shared consensus while minimizing distinctions of wealth and power.（最大程度缩小差距=平等对待），开头提到的平等主义也是这个意思
希望有用
