Abstract

The concept of public safety management emerged from the desire to provide people with the management of an institution that would ensure public safety in an organized way. We can only imagine what medieval or post-medieval societies looked like from a public safety perspective. The chances of survival and life expectancy were extremely low due to the way communities functioned. But they were even smaller in the Romanian principalities, especially in Moldavia and Wallachia, provinces always at a crossroads, being under the influence of the great powers of the time and especially the Ottoman Empire. The purpose of this article is to identify the precursors of the police institution, in a society strongly influenced by the Phanariot community.
