Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to present the evolution of police activity with the social, political and cultural changes in Romania since the fall of the communist regime and the establishment of the democratic regime in Romanian society until today. An essential role in the process of transformation of the police system from an authoritarian to a democratic state was played by Romania's integration into the European Union. Romania's accession to the EU has represented both a reform in the institutional framework of the Romanian Police and a change in the mentalities, attitudes and behavior of police workers.At the same time, the development of the concept of "fundamental rights and freedoms" was a pillar of the modernization and democratization of police officers' mentalities in their relations with citizens, their training in this area being essential.
