Notably, different countries have different policing system depending on the objectives of the bucolic and its historical tolerateground. (Manning 2005)Brief historyPolicing in the UK has been in existence for centuries i.e. since the Saxon times. However, modern policing systems can be dated back to the beginnings of the 19th century, w here law enforcers were appointed in localized areas. Originally, the guards law of natured towns in order to ensure that curfews were adhered to and to contain riots.For representative the Edinburgh town guard in 1682, Marine police, Glasgow police which were all formed in the late eighteenth century. In fact the first police in UK was the city of Glasgow police formed under the Glasgow police wager in the 1800. The police was a publicly funded program from local tax payers money and its art was to prevent crime.The success of this force in that localized area was followed by its subsequent adoption in other areas. Additionally, committees were appointed to investigate of the policing in these areas from 1812-1822 and their findings and recommendations paved way for the incorporation of the metropolitan police Act 1829 under the instruction of Robert Peel, the whence Home secretary.Following the passing of this Act the Metropolitan police was founded. Hirschel, David J. and William Wakefield. 1995The policing structure here was highly bureaucratic rigorous and hierarchal. Their duty still remained to prevent crime and trail law breakers, in an unrestricted approach. The poli ce of those days did not carry any armament due to the previous fears inseparable in citizens by the red dressed armies who used firearms and brutality to enforce laws.Therefore, their weaponry was limited to batons. Their akin was navy blue in color, a sharp distinction from that of the phalanx, although there were also plain-clothed police detectives yet few in number. These differences were in part to create a clear distinction of police from civilians/army and also to eschew the potential of generating fear from civilians. Of course after the establishment of Metropolitan police in Britain, other states followed suit.In 1857, the general police Act in Scotland mandated the formation of country police force in every country, in 1856, England and Wale passed the country and Borough Act which required that police forces be created throughout England and Wales Ireland followed in1877 by forming the Royal Irish constabulary.

The first police force in the US was found in capital of Massachusetts and in New York as established in 1838 and 1844 respectively. However the first professionalized police force started in California, under August Vollmer and Wilson O.E then police chief.
