Description
Sociologists who use the functionalist perspective stress how industrialization and urbanization undermined the traditional functions of the family. Before industrialization, members of the family worked together as an economic unit, as in this photo of a farm family in Minnesota in the 1890s. As production moved away from the home,  it took with it first the father and, more recently, the mother. One consequence is a major dysfunction, the weakening of family ties.
