Garlands explanation of ‘new experience’ is most likely the reason behind “The emergence of a ‘culture of control’” as described by Palmer wherein extreme measures are looked upon as “normal” to counter terrorism. He also talks about how community surveillance is creating a “culture of suspicion” (Palmer, 2011).
Culture of a society is in a way directly responsible for the state’s policy on punishment. Often the various modes of punishment draw their sources from the culture of the society. David Garland calls “punishment a cultural artefact which embodies and expresses society’s cultural forms” (Garland, 1991).

These organisations develop specific cultures over a time which have their own values and their own identities etc. So when these organisations have to undergo an overhaul or a merger for a particular reason then in that case a certain amount of friction is experienced due to the difference of cultures in between such organisations and if sensitivity is not shown towards them or if they are ignored then such mergers often fail or they underperform.
Stephen Shute highlighted this problem when he studied the merger of inspectorates into one joint inspectorate in England and Wales in a period of last 17 years. He concluded that though the joint electorate system was established for a more efficient delivery they have failed almost without exception. Different cultures in individual electorates acted as “centrifugal forces” which worked against each other when brought together in a joint system (Shute, 2013).
There can also be a ‘clash of culture’ well within a particular system. Palmer talks about clash of culture in the face of counter-terrorism in western societies. The two cultures which he is primarily talking about are “culture of criminal justice policing and enforcement” with the “culture of national security and intelligence” (Palmer, …show more content…

Though the importance of culture may have finally been noticed in the wake of heinous crimes and terrorism we are departing from our legal culture and traditions causing miscarriage of justice through overreactions on behalf of policy makers to appear hard on crime. These departures have been effectively summed up by David Paciocco in his article ‘Pragmatism, Legal Culture, and the Protection of Rights and Freedoms’ (Paciocco,
