II. EVOLUTION OF THE POLICING SYSTEM
ORIGIN OF THE WORD “POLICE”

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
- 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

(watchmen of the city), which had the primary task of firefighting and policing

and hunting down runaway slaves, and were on occasion used to maintain order in the
streets

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
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

III. 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 celebration of the anniversary of the Manila’s Finest every
