A partir de la experiencia de tres grupos de inmigran- tes mexicanos establecidos en la región metropolitana de Los Ángeles, mostramos la relevan- cia de la especificidad en la práctica religiosa y organizativa en las localidades de origen, para comprender los caminos elegidos por los migrantes para movilizar prácticas y creencias en la reconfiguración de su relación con las localidades de origen y destino. PALABRAS CLAVE: integración, religión, conversión religiosa, transnacionalismo, etnicidad. ABSTRACT: Religious practices and beliefs can constitute an important resource in the inte- gration process of migrants, however, the form and direction in which such resources are utilized may vary significantly even among migrant groups coming from the same country, established within the same region and who used to practice the same religion when starting their migration process.

    Reserve Component Personnel Issues: Questions and Answers

    Reserve Component Personnel Issues: Questions and Answers Updated June 15, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL30802 Reserve Component Personnel Issues: Questions and Answers Summary The Constitution provides Congress with broad powers over the Armed Forces, including the power to “to raise and support Armies,” “to provide and maintain a Navy,” “to make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces” and “to provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States.” In the exercise of this constitutional authority, Congress has historically shown great interest in various issues that bear on the vitality of the reserve components, such as funding, equipment, and personnel policy. This report is designed to provide an overview of key reserve component personnel issues. The term “Reserve Component” refers collectively to the seven individual reserve components of the Armed Forces: the Army National Guard of the United States, the Army Reserve, the Navy Reserve, the Marine Corps Reserve, the Air National Guard of the United States, the Air Force Reserve, and the Coast Guard Reserve. The purpose of these seven reserve components, as codified in law at 10 U.S.C. §10102, is to “provide trained units and qualified persons available for active duty in the armed forces, in time of war or national emergency, and at such other times as the national security may require, to fill the needs of the armed forces whenever more units and persons are needed than are in the regular components.” During the Cold War era, the reserve components were a manpower pool that was rarely used.

    Coalition Letter to the Internet Society Internet Society Attn: Andrew Sullivan, President and CEO 11710 Plaza America Drive, Suite 400 Reston, VA 20190

    eff.org Coalition Letter to the Internet Society Internet Society Attn: Andrew Sullivan, President and CEO 11710 Plaza America Drive, Suite 400 Reston, VA 20190 Dear Mr. Sullivan, We urge you to stop the sale of the Public Interest Registry (PIR) to Ethos Capital. Non-governmental organizations all over the world rely on the .ORG top-level domain. Decisions aecting .ORG must be made with the consultation of the NGO community, overseen by a trusted community leader. If the Internet Society (ISOC) can no longer be that leader, it should work with the NGO community and the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) to find an appropriate replacement. The 2019 .ORG Registry Agreement represents a significant departure from .ORG’s 34-year history. It gives the registry the power to make several policy decisions that would be detrimental to the .ORG community: The power to raise .ORG registration fees without the approval of ICANN or the .ORG community. A .ORG price hike would put many cash-strapped NGOs in the dicult position of either paying the increased fees or losing the legitimacy and brand recognition of a .ORG domain. The power to develop and implement Rights Protection Mechanisms unilaterally, without consulting the .ORG community. If such mechanisms are not carefully crafted in collaboration with the NGO community, they risk censoring completely legal nonprofit activities. The power to implement processes to suspend domain names based on accusations of “activity contrary to applicable law.” The .ORG registry should not implement such processes without understanding how state actors frequently target NGOs with allegations of illegal activity.
