In ''Language contact, creolization, and genetic linguistics'' (1988), coauthored by Kaufman and Sarah Thomason, the authors were the first to lay down a solid theoretical framework for the understanding of the processes of contact-induced language change. Kaufman's proposed genealogy of the indigenous languages of South America (Kaufman 1990), which stands as the most thorough and well-founded classification of its kind, serves as the basis for the classification presented by Lyle Campbell in his authoritative "American Indian Languages" (Campbell 1996).
Along with John Justeson, he claimed to have successfully deciphered the [[Isthmian script|Isthmian]] or [[Epi-Olmec]] script (Justeson & Kaufman 1993). This claim has not found general acceptance in the general scholarly community, and has been bluntly rejected by [[Michael Coe]] and [[Stephen Houston]] (Houston & Coe 2004, and [http://byunews.byu.edu/release.aspx?story=archive04/Jan/Isthmian Press Release]). Kaufman is currently involved in the "Project for the Documentation of the Languages of Mesoamerica" or PDLMA, focused on collecting standardized linguistic data from the underdocumented languages of Mesoamerica.
He is currently a professor at the department of [[anthropology]] at the [[University of Pittsburgh]].-->
