本文通过提供一些关于城市比较研究相对标量方法必要性的初步想法，解决了比较城市研究中棘手且重新出现的问题。城市被视为地方、区域、国家和全球不同但相互联系的文化、政治和经济权力领域的相互构成的切入点。这里提供的比较视角侧重于国际移民与其定居城市之间的不同关系。在评估影响城市在权力范围内重新定位的因素时，城市居民（包括移民）可能会成为“尺度制定者”，因为他们体验、理解和评估城市的相对优点。所提出的分析框架从欧洲和美国的三个城市（巴黎、达拉斯和哈勒/萨勒）提取数据，也可以在全球范围内使用，以思考比较城市研究的分析参数。
This article addresses the thorny and re-emergent issue of comparative urban studies by offering some initial thoughts on the need for a relative scalar approach to the comparative study of cities. Cities are approached as entry points into the mutual constitution of local, regional, national, and global positional scales of differentiated but connected domains of cultural, political, and economic power. The comparative perspective offered here focuses on the varying relationship between international migrants and their cities of settlement. In assessing the factors that contribute to a city's repositioning within parameters of power, residents of cities—including migrants—may become "scale-makers" as they experience, understand, and evaluate the relative merits of cities. Drawing data from three cities in Europe and the United States—Paris, Dallas, and Halle/Saale—the proposed analytical framework can also be used globally to think about the analytical parameters for comparative urban research.
