Weiner 1971 explains that “political demography is the study of the size, composition, and distribution of population in relation to both government and politics..
Population study is concerned with human beings.
Demography is the statistical study of the living populations and sub-populations.
It can be a very general science that can be applied to any kind of dynamic living population that is one that changes over time or space..
Democracy is broadly understood to mean ‘rule by the people’
In practice, it is often defined as people choosing their leaders in free and fair elections
Other definitions go beyond thisFor example, some of them see democracy as people having additional individual rights and being protected from the state
Nevertheless, the key point is that demography can tell us much more than is apparent at the surface
While democracy is not always guaranteed, in most cases it is linked to demography and population change, and we see this borne out in the data
