Abstract
The concept of culture has a long and distinguished history, and like most sociological concepts is subject to wide variations in definition and application. In this paper, we focus on occupation culture in police organisations. Occupational culture is a reduced, selective and task-based version of culture. Police culture has been found to emphasise secrecy, self-protection, violence and maintenance of respect. In the study presented in this paper, an occupational culture characterised by long time perspectives, flat power structure and open leadership style were found to be positively related to police officers' involvement in the antiterror police in Norway.
