title: [Basic theoretical and methodological principles of developing a population and housing census program in the People's Republic of Bulgaria in 1985].
abstract: "Proceeding from the Marxist approach to the relation between population and social development, a significantly broader theoretical model of studying the population by means of the forthcoming [Bulgarian] census is justified."  The model includes demographic, educational, and socioeconomic aspects, as well as labor force activity.  The collection of data by means of sample surveys is assessed, with a focus on areas concerning fertility and reproductive behavior, migration, labor needs and resources, health, and the social system.
