Abstract
The purpose of the article is to define and to make a distinction between such complex categories as quality of life and quality of population. These two concepts are often confused with each other due to their ambiguity. To find out the causes of this confusion, the author examines the origin and development of these categories in the course of time. It is worth noting that these concepts are fundamental by nature, and in many respects their definition forms a specific language for further studies.
Keywords:
quality of life, quality of population, human potential, human development concept
