Summary/Abstract: From the point of view of the English language, only at the beginning of the XVIII century, the word "police" has the meaning of using a method to maintain civilization. The police in England does not have a political role, it does not use informants. It remains, in principle, politically neutral, as it serves the law not the government. It uses minimum violence and the only weapon police officers are allowed to have is the police baton.
