This paper attempts to define the field of demography identify the demographer assess the extent to which demography is a social science and relate it to the other social sciences. It examines how changes in the outside world affect what demographers do and what they publish. As befits Population Studiess 50th anniversary the role of journals and especially of this journal is examined. The early role of the journal and of its longtime two editors in defining the field is discussed. The interface between demography and the other social sciences is examined as is the extent to which demographers publish in journals other than specialist population ones. (EXCERPT)
