Review Quotes: "Civic Engagements is a graceful comparative look at two 'new American' communities. This book illustrates a crucial point about citizenship--that it is not to be measured simply by attainment of legal status but by engagement with others in activities that demonstrate belonging."--Karen Isaksen Leonard, University of California, Irvine
