Based on research in the Dallas–Arlington–Fort Worth area of Texas, this book examines the sociocultural spaces in which Vietnamese and Indian immigrants are engaging with the wider civic sphere. As Civic Engagements reveals, religious and ethnic organizations provide arenas in which immigrants develop their own ways of being and becoming "American." Skills honed at a meeting, festival, or banquet have resounding implications for the future political potential of these immigrant populations, both locally and nationally. Employing Lave and Wenger's concept of "communities of practice" as a framework, this book emphasizes the variety of processes by which new citizens acquire the civic and leadership skills that help them to move from peripheral positions to more central roles in American society.East Indian AmericansPolitical activityTexasVietnamese AmericansPolitical activityTexasEast Indian AmericansTexasSocieties, etcVietnamese AmericansTexasSocieties, etcImmigrantsPolitical activityUnited StatesCase studiesImmigrantsUnited StatesSocieties, etcCase studiesElectronic books.East Indian AmericansPolitical activityVietnamese AmericansPolitical activityEast Indian AmericansSocieties, etc.Vietnamese AmericansSocieties, etc.ImmigrantsPolitical activityImmigrantsSocieties, etc.323.1191/40764Brettell Caroline993305Reed-Danahay Deborah625833MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457325803321Civic engagements2457764UNINA03610nam 2200577 450 991046381490332120200520144314.00-12-411528-4(CKB)2670000000574943(CaPaEBR)ebrary10990014(SSID)ssj0001369427(PQKBManifestationID)12586104(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001369427(PQKBWorkID)11288246(PQKB)11668783(MiAaPQ)EBC1832704(CaSebORM)9780124114616(Au-PeEL)EBL1832704(CaPaEBR)ebr10990014(CaONFJC)MIL659698(OCoLC)894555128(EXLCZ)99267000000057494320141212h20152015 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtccrBusiness intelligence guidebook from data integration to analytics /Rick Sherman ; foreword by Claudia Imhoff1st editionWaltham, Massachusetts :Morgan Kaufmann,2015.©20151 online resource (551 p.)Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-12-411461-X 1-322-28418-0 Includes bibliographical references and index.Between the high-level concepts of business intelligence and the nitty-gritty instructions for using vendors’ tools lies the essential, yet poorly-understood layer of architecture, design and process.
