Which of the following is known for his contribution towards theorising social composition of population ?
Answer: C
The official key names Talcott Parsons as the one known for theorising the social composition of population.
Talcott Parsons built a general theory of social systems, with roles, social structure and the composition of groups, and this is the theoretical work the question has in mind.
Goldsteen and Sly, Shryock and Siegel, and D.J. Bogue are known for textbooks and technical work in demography, such as the methods and materials of demography and the principles of demography, and not for the theorising of social composition. So the key sets Parsons apart.
