Considering the wide use of sociology in researching the military, an institution that shares its social roots with the police, the first section provides an overview of military institutions and their influence on other social domains, and aims to show the potential of sociology to study the insti tutionalisation of the structures that have historically been developing in order to protect society and its members. Consequently, the following sections analyze the potential of sociology to study the police by study ing social processes, values, relations and action. The following are thereby implied: social relations become stabilized through the repetition of structures that ensure the long-term prevention of threats to civil security; the protection of social values and how this presents concrete everyday goals for police activity
