Definición

  • In common usage, the people can designate either (a) unspecifically, a group of persons, such as a nation, tribe, race, or other form of community, which may or may not be perceived to share a collective identity; or (b) politically, the total body of enfranchised or eligible citizens of a state. Either way, the people of a geographical region or country are not usually coextensive with its population, which includes, for instance, other ethnic groups or foreign residents.
