It doesn't have to be a steel cube.

You can tell how humane a society is by how it treats it's criminals, and--importantly--how they treat criminals is how they'll treat their citizens if given half the chance.

Not for no reason does the US lead the western world in state-sponsored brutality and casual administrative cruelty, while northern Europe (who locks their irredeemable criminals away in what Americans derisively refer to as "luxury hotels") leads the world in happiness quotients.
