Preferred term

posse comitatus  

Definition

  • THE POSSE COMITATUS, also known as the Sheriff's Posse Comitatus, is a conservative movement that holds that the local county is the basic, and only truly legitimate, governing unit in the United States. It traces its beliefs back to English Common Law in the Middle Ages when the shire was the core political unit and the sheriff the main law enforcement authority. [Source: Encyclopedia of Politics: The Left and the Right: Volume 1: TheLeft and Volume 2: The Right; Posse Comitatus]
