Abstract
This paper contains a description of the basic population model and a discussion of applications of the model to some problems of common concern to demographers and sociologists. The concept of a population is advocated as a frame of reference in investigations of population composition and process, in the resolution of differences between macroanalysis and microanalysis, and in the design of studies of social change.Keywords
