Sumario:This article tries give place to an analysis about the possible differences and continuities over the conceptualization of police in the last decade of the XVIII century and the first decades of the XIX century, all in comparative key. We’ll concentrate in the Police Intendencia of Buenos Aires, created in 1812 with the May Revolution as background. The regulation that configures the Intendencia will be placed in discussion with the Bando of 1799, which conformed the police tasks, to look for continuities and ruptures in the plot that gives life to this institutional spaces. We don’t pretend to develop a conceptual history of the word ‘police’, but we will explore, simultaneously and even with our limitations, some of the ideas that have formed and transformed the control and surveillance institutions throughout the XIX century in the Río de la Plata.
