Answer 1

Sociologists are interested in the relationship between the institution of marriage and the institution of family because, historically, marriages are what create a family, and families are the most basic social unit upon which society is built.

The family is the most important social unit of society. It is not only the basic societal unit; but also the basic sexual unit, the basic child-raising unit, the basic communication unit, and the basic all-around fun and friendship unit.
