EVOLUTION OF THE POLICING SYSTEM ORIGIN OF THE WORD “POLICE” POLITEIA – Greek word which means government of the city POLITIA – Roman word which means condition of the state or government POLICE – French word which was later adopted by the English language THEORIES OF POLICE SERVICE 1) HOME RULE THEORY - policemen are regarded as servants of the community, who rely for the efficiency of their functions upon the express needs of the people - policemen are civil servants whose key duty is the preservation of public peace and security 2) CONTINENTAL THEORY Page 7 of 40 sa  - policemen are regarded as state or servants of the higher authorities - the people have no share or have little participation with the duties nor connection with the police organization CONCEPTS OF POLICE SERVICE 1) OLD CONCEPT - police service gives the impression of being merely a suppressive machinery - this philosophy advocates that the measurement of police competence is the increasing number of arrests, throwing offenders in detention facilities rather than trying to prevent them from committing crimes 2) MODERN CONCEPT - regards police as the first line of defense of the criminal justice system, an organ of crime prevention - police efficiency is measured by the decreasing number of crimes - broadens police activities to cater to social services and has for its mission the welfare of the individual as well as that of the community in general EARLY POLICING SYSTEM 1) KIN POLICING - the family of the offended individual was expected to assume responsibility for justice - the family of the victim was allowed to exact vengeance 2) EGYPT - ancient rulers had elite unit to protect them - created the MEDJAYS, a form of police force whose duties include guarding of the tombs and apprehending thieves - introduced the use of dogs as guards and protectors 3) ROME - created the first organized police force called VIGILES OF ROME, or VIGILES URBANI (watchmen of the city), which had the primary task of firefighting and policing - the Vigiles acted as night watch, apprehendinng thieves, keeping an eye out for burglars and hunting down runaway slaves, and were on occasion used to maintain order in the streets - the Vigiles dealt primarily with petty crimes and looked for disturbances of the peace while they patrolled the streets - created a special unit called PRAETORIAN GUARDS, a special force of guards used by Roman Emperors as the Emperors' personal guards - as personal guards of the Emperor, their primary duty was to protect the Emperor from assassination and other forms of attack against the Emperor 4) ENGLAND Page 8 of 40 sa  a) FRANKPLEDGE SYSTEM/MUTUAL PLEDGE SYSTEM - required all males aged 12 and above to join a group of nine to form a TYTHING - members of the tything are called a TYTHINGMEN - a CONSTABLE served as a leader of ten tythings - the primary task of the things was to protect their village from thieves and animals - tythings were later organized into SHIRES - a shire was headed by a leader called SHIRE REEVE, which is the origin of the word “sheriff” - their duty was to apprehend offenders b) PARISH CONSTABLES - a parish official charged with controlling crimes - appointed to serve for one year - duties included organizing watchmen to guard the gates - during trouble, the watchman would raise a “HUE AND CRY”, a call to arms where the rest of the parish would stop what they were doing and come to the aid of the constable MODERN POLICING SYSTEM 1) ENGLAND a) BOWSTREET RUNNERS - a group of men organized to arrest offenders - organized by Henry Fielding, a magistrate in London, in 1749 in London, England - the name was adopted from the name of the street where the office of Henry Fielding was located - when Henry Fielding retired as magistrate, he was replaced by his blind brother, John Fielding b) METROPOLITAN POLICE OF ACT 1829 - the law that created the first modern police force in London England, called the Metropolitan Police Service -

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PHILIPPINE POLICING SYSTEM The institution of police in the Philippines formally started during the Spanish period. The establishment of the police force was not entirely intended for crime prevention nor peacekeeping. Rather, it was created as an extension of the colonial military establishment. Ancient Roots The forerunner of the contemporary police system was the practice of barangay chieftains to select able-bodied young men to protect their barangay during the night and were not required to work in the fields during daytime. Among the duties of those selected were to protect the properties of the people in the barangay and protect their crops and livestock from wild animals. Spanish Period Carabineros de Seguridad Publica – organized in 1712 for the purpose of carrying the regulations of the Department of State; this was armed and considered as the mounted police; years after, this kind of police organization discharged the duties of a port, harbor and river police Guardrilleros/Cuardillo – this was a body of rural police organized in each town and established by the Royal Decree of 18 January 1836; this decree provided that 5% of the able-bodied male inhabitants of each province were to be enlisted in this police organization for three years Guardia Civil – this was created by a Royal Decree issued by the Crown on 12 February 1852 to partially relieve the Spanish Peninsular troops of their work in policing towns; it consisted of a body of Filipino policemen organized originally in each of the provincial capitals of the central provinces of Luzon under the Alcalde Mayor American Period The Americans established the United States Philippine Commission headed by General Howard Taft as its first governor-general. On January 9, 1901, the Metropolitan Police Force of Manila was organized pursuant to Act No 70 of the Taft Commission. This has become the basis for the Page 10 of 40 sa  celebration of the anniversary of the Manila’s Finest every January 9th.
