Summary/Abstract: The facts and implications of the gendarmes in Romanian social life represent an unresearched segment that leaves open the way to the realization of a brief study. Social work is one of the prerequisites for ensuring the smooth running of democratic society, as it is a specific model of social protection for people and their rights. The present paper is in fact the result of thorough investigations of periodicals, documents from archival funds such as the General Inspectorate of the Gendarmerie, as well as other funds in the field of public order and safety held by the Central National Historical Archives and specialized works in the field of social work. The paper highlights the legislative framework that established the role of gendarmes in social life, captures moments from which the qualities of the gendarmes such as human value and dignity, honesty, courage, empathy and so on, values that shape the profile of a gendarme dedicated to the people and the nation.
