Although most countries around the world use professional judges,
they also rely on lay citizens, untrained in the law, to decide
criminal cases. The participation of lay citizens helps to
incorporate community perspectives into legal outcomes and to
provide greater legitimacy for the legal system and its verdicts.
This book offers a comprehensive and comparative picture of how
nations use lay people in legal decision-making. It provides a
much-needed, in-depth analysis of the different approaches to
citizen participation and considers why some countries' use of lay
participation is long-standing whereas other countries alter or
abandon their efforts. This book examines the many ways in which
countries around the world embrace, reject, or reform the way in
which they use ordinary citizens in legal decision-making.
