Abstract This essay reconsiders the role of population in early modern thought about the nature of human society and government. From Machiavelli onward, changes in human numbers provided criteria for evaluating the legitimacy and security of states. More particularly, such changes were regarded as bearing on individual freedom of choice under different forms of government. Population may be described as having a double aspect in early modern thinking. In principle, primary place was given to reproduction as a manifestation of natural and divine order. But in practice much more attention was given to population membership or composition, since it was recognized that the use which could actually be made of natural resources depended on the way societies regulated people's rights and responsibilities. This approach enables us to see not only how population was a central element in the emergence of modern political thought, but the intimate relation between this tradition and the early development of quantitative methods of population inquiry. The reasons for the neglect of this relationship are outlined, and the continuing capacity of the early modern framework to underwrite population theory is noted. Journal Information Founded in 1975, Population and Development Review seeks to advance knowledge of the interrelationships between population and socioeconomic development and provides a forum for discussion of related issues of public policy. Combining readability with scholarship, the journal draws on high-level social science expertise-in economics, anthropology, sociology, and political science-to offer challenging ideas, provocative analysis, and critical insights. Each issue includes a lively collection of book reviews and an archives section that brings to light historical writings with a resonance for contemporary population debate. Supplements to the journal also are available. Publisher Information The Population Council conducts research to address critical health and development issues. Our work allows couples to plan their families and chart their futures. We help people avoid HIV infection and access life-saving HIV services. And we empower girls to protect themselves and have a say in their own lives. Rights & Usage This item is part of a JSTOR Collection.
