    Content: "The flow of migrants from south to north and east to west carries with it growing concerns about the economic integration, political incorporation, and social inclusion of newcomers and their children. But what happens when a group of people deliberately excludes themselves from mainstream society? How can social policies, human services, and communities best understand and respond to them? In Out of Place, Luann Good Gingrich explores social inclusion and exclusion in relation to the approximately 60,000 Low German-speaking Mennonites who have migrated from isolated agricultural colonies in Latin America to rural areas of Canada. By examining the free-market principles that organize the human services industry the author exposes the inherent conflict that arises when this "market logic" is imposed on a group that does not embrace these ideals. The author's innovative approach to social policy and human services that emphasizes the power dynamic between dominant and subordinate cultures encourages us to find new ways to authentically engage with difference and bridge the gaps that divide us."--
    Content: Social exclusion in a world on the move -- Mennonite migrations and a common sense point-of-view -- Market logic and the order of social space -- Everyday practices of social exclusion -- Producing the economic habitus -- The practical sense of self-imposed social exclusion -- Social inclusion : ideas and practices of reconciliation
