He came to the conclusion that working-class families have so meager an economic existence that all their social organization and habits are bound up with the family budget, especially when the budget is dependent upon wage labor, which in turn is dependent upon the amount of labor available, that is, the geographical location of the family home. Through his studies of the family undervariegated geographical conditions, he was a pioneer in the use of the comparative method in sociology." (Gale Encyclopedia).
