Generally speaking a larger population size will find it harder to be as cohesive as a smaller population size
Hence the larger the population the more inflexible its structure

Logically, one would think that the larger the population, the more divided the labor would be, as their would be more hands to accomadate it...but I think that is an assumption that is largely untrue. I think that many people still rely on the same old ones of society to take care of things, thus allowing large populations of people who just float along on others hard work. But that is a personal opinion.

the greater the population size (and density) the greater the division of labor, See Durkheim's "Division of Labor in Society."
