title: [A "German" history of population?  Gunther Ipsen's historical-sociological theory of population].
abstract: "German population historians refer to Gunther Ipsen (1899-1984) as the founder of a 'historical-sociological population theory'.  Reviewing Ipsen's most important publications in the field of population theory and population history, which mainly appeared in 1933, the author reconstructs the central features of Ipsen's demographic and historical thinking.  His system appears as an attempt to create a peculiar 'German population theory' closely related to the ideologies and politics of the National-Socialist state."  (SUMMARY IN ENG)
