Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of the historical formation of the law enforcement system of the USA, Great Britain and Ukraine on the basis of a comparative legal analysis of the key stages of the law enforcement agencies genesis.
 It is proved that the formation of the system of law enforcement bodies in a certain state is determined by the peculiarities of the state-legal system of this state and existing historical events, which became a trigger for changes both in regulatory and legal regulation, and in the implementation of the tasks of law enforcement bodies in practice. The choice as a basis for the analysis of the historical development of the law enforcement system of countries such as Ukraine, the United States of America, and Great Britain derives from one factor, namely the form of the state system, since, in our opinion, there is a hypothesis regarding the influence of the form of the state system on the development of law enforcement bodies on the territory of a certain country.
 On the basis of the applied comparative legal analysis, the essential stages of the development of law enforcement agencies of these states, the regulatory and legal enshrining of their competence, and the peculiarities of the practical implementation of their functions were studied and analyzed.
 It is justified that the historical development of states, their political interaction on the historical arena with other states, the development of economy and trade influenced and still influences the speed and intensity of the development of the law enforcement system. Thus, the belonging of the territories of Ukraine to different states caused the multi-stage formation of its law enforcement system as well as the obtaining of various foreign practices of its legal regulation. The administrative-territorial structure of the states, which was determined during the analysis of the experience of the United States of America, has no less influence: as a result of the federal structure of the state, we can talk about a three-tier system of law enforcement bodies at the level of the federation, individual states, and at the local level. The historical development of Great Britain contributed to the formation of various independent bodies within the law enforcement system, which was not observed in other studied states.
